Thomas sustained the injury in Week 1 of the 2020 season and played through it that whole campaign. Thomas then underwent the surgery this June.

The 28-year-old Thomas led the league with 149 receptions en route to earning the NFL’s Offensive Player of the Year award in 2019. Thomas played three seasons at Ohio State and amassed 113 receptions, 1,602 yards, and 18 touchdowns.
