Clayton Thomas Jr. is Austin Peay’s steady, experienced long snapper
Thomas Jr. projects as a dependable special-teams piece rather than a box-score player: after appearing in every game for Bethune-Cookman in 2023 and moving to Austin Peay in 2025, he brings continuity, snap consistency, and game-day reliability at long snapper. He was part of a unit that handled a heavy punt load and also snapped on field goals, which matters for roster fit because trusted specialists quietly keep special teams clean. If you need a low-drama, assignment-sound snapper with proven availability, he’s the kind of addition coaches like to sleep on and then happily keep.
