  • Buccaneers' Tavierre Thomas: Cross-training at multiple spots

    Thomas is seeing reps at nickelback, strong safety and free safety early in training camp, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports. Thomas signed with the Buccaneers this offseason after spending the last three seasons with the Texans, arriving with extensive experience playing the slot and 22 career starts overall. Thomas has already recorded two interceptions in the first three days of camp, and head coach Todd Bowles is taking advantage of the six-year veteran's versatility by having him cross-train at three positions in order to maximize his value to the secondary.

  • Texans' Tavierre Thomas: Missing second straight week

    Thomas (hand) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against Pittsburgh. The 27-year-old underwent surgery after breaking his hand during the Texans' Week 2 loss to the Colts, so it's no surprise he's missing his second consecutive week. With Thomas missing time, Grayland Arnold is expected to see an uptick in work as the team's top nickel corner.

  • Texans' Tavierre Thomas: Restored to active roster

    Thomas (quadriceps) was activated to the Texans' 53-man roster Thursday. Thomas spent the first seven weeks of the season on Houston's IR with a quadriceps injury before being designated to return to practice last Wednesday. Now, the second-year cornerback will be available to suit up for the first heading into Thursday's game against the Eagles. Thomas played 618 defensive snaps and collected 86 tackles, four passes defended and two interceptions over 17 games with the Texans last season, and he could play a prominent reserve role if Desmond King (knee) is held out against Philadelphia.

  • Texans' Tavierre Thomas: Out indefinitely with pulled quad

    Thomas pulled his quadriceps and is out indefinitely, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports. After solidifying himself as a special-teams ace early in his career, Thomas signed with the Texans last year and served as the team's nickelback, totaling a career-high 86 tackles and two interceptions. His absence will likely heat up competition in Houston's secondary, which features plenty of unproven talent.

  • Texans' Tavierre Thomas: Chooses Texans

    Thomas agreed Wednesday with the Texans on a two-year contract, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Thomas spent the last three seasons in Cleveland but never made a true impact until injuries piled up in the team's secondary last season. The 25-year-old recorded 30 tackles, a sack and a forced fumble across 203 defensive snaps in 2020. The Texans will likely rely on Thomas mostly as a special-teams contributor during the upcoming campaign.

  • Browns' Tavierre Thomas: Listed as questionable

    Thomas (abdomen) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Thomas has been limited in practice all week due to an abdominal injury, and he appears truly questionable for Cleveland's matchup against Kansas City in Week 9. The undrafted rookie has played all of his snaps on special teams, so his absence would be unlikely to notably impact the Browns' secondary.
