What It Means:

It sounds like Thomas will be a game-time decision, but head coach Gary Kubiak hasn't expressed much confidence in his receiver's ability to play. There's no way he will be anywhere close to 100 percent, making Thomas a WR3 with plenty of risk, and reasonable upside, against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2.

Our models account for Thomas racking up 71 yards and 0.52 touchdowns on 6 catches this week. He averaged 0.67 Reception Net Expected Points per target in Week 1, ranking 50th among receivers.
