Da'Quan Thomas brings veteran OL experience and proven game-day availability to Akron
Da'Quan Thomas is a redshirt senior offensive lineman who gives Akron a **300-pound, 6-2 interior blocker** with real college mileage: he played in **11 games with 3 starts in 2024** after multi-year stops at Florida and NC Central[6][10]. His best differentiator is versatility and durability—he’s been on the field consistently across several seasons, and at NC Central he earned weekly conference recognition for an **89% block grade with two pancake blocks** in a 2023 win[12]. He looks like a fit for a team that values experienced, physical line depth over pure recruiting shine[6][12].
