Curtis Thomas brings track-speed upside to South Dakota’s receiver room
Curtis Thomas is a redshirt freshman wideout for South Dakota whose calling card is pure speed: he was a prep all-conference player, starred on both sides of the ball, and was noted for a 4.5-second 40-yard dash and track background. In 2024, he appeared in eight regular-season games but did not record statistics, so the appeal is more projection than production right now. If your team wants a low-mileage athlete with burst, developmental ceiling, and special-teams-friendly athletic juice, he’s worth watching; if you need an instant-volume receiver, he’s still a work in progress.
