Thomas (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Bears in London.
Thomas has been cleared to play Sunday, despite missing the Jaguars' Week 5 win over the Colts and then being listed as questionable heading into the weekend after he was a limited participant in practices Wednesday through Friday. He should reprise his usual role as a backup safety and core special-teams contributor.

Jaguars' Daniel Thomas: Questionable for Week 6
Rotowire
Thomas (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.
Thomas sustained a hamstring injury during Jaguars' practice last week that sidelined him for the team's Week 5 win over the Colts. However, he's got a chance to return in Week 6 after logging three consecutive limited practice sessions. If Thomas can't play through his hamstring injury Sunday, expect Darnell Savage to see increased work as the Jaguars' top reserve safety.

With fellow safeties Andrew Wingard (knee) and Tashaun Gipson (suspension) also out, Terrell Edmunds will serve as the primary backup behind starters Andre Cisco and Darnell Savage.

Jaguars' Daniel Thomas: Lands on injured reserve
Rotowire
Thomas (arm) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.
Coach Doug Marrone said the arm injury will cause the 22-year-old to miss "considerable time," so a move to IR isn't surprising. Andrew Wingard is poised to take over starting duties at strong safety since previous starter Josh Jones (chest) is also on IR. Thomas will be eligible to return Dec. 20 at Baltimore, though it's unclear how long he's expected to be sidelined.

Jaguars' Daniel Thomas: Set to miss multiple games
Rotowire
Coach Doug Marrone said Monday that Thomas (arm) will miss "considerable time," John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.
Marrone handed Thomas, Josh Allen (knee) and D.J. Hayden (knee) the same timeline to return, which wasn't definitive but hints at a multi-game absence for each player. Thomas started his second game of the year in Sunday's loss to the Steelers because Josh Jones (chest) is on IR, and it appears the Jaguars will deploy their third starting strong safety in four games Week 12. Andrew Wingard is the top candidate to take Thomas' place.
