Steven Thomas Jr. is a big-bodied East Kentucky mauler with freshman upside
Steven Thomas Jr. enters the 2026 season as a 6-foot-3, 330-pound offensive lineman at Eastern Kentucky, a frame that screams power and interior flexibility. Listed as a freshman in EKU’s 2024 roster and still appearing in 2025 player pages, he looks like a developmental blocker with old-school trench size rather than a stat-sheet star. The appeal is simple: if he refines leverage, footwork, and consistency, he can become the kind of road-grader that quietly changes games in the run game and pass protection.
