Ricky Thomas Jr.: Hard-Hitting DB with Pro-Level Athleticism from Kansas
Ricky Thomas Jr., a 6-1, 225 lb safety/linebacker out of Kansas, exploded in the 2020 season with 42 tackles (second on the team), career-highs of 8 tackles vs. Oklahoma, 2 PBUs at West Virginia, and prior 2019 stats of 20 tackles plus 1 INT; his elite combine measurables (36" vertical, 10' broad jump, 12 bench reps) and hard-hitting style earned 'scariest safety' hype online. A physical playmaker with range and intensity, he's a scheme-versatile fit for teams needing aggressive back-end disruption—no major injury flags.
