2023 Fantasy Outlook
There was no outlook written for Tavion Thomas in 2023. Check out the latest news below for more on his current fantasy value.
Enters draft, season over
Toe
November 25, 2022
Thomas announced Friday that he will forgo his remaining eligibility at Utah to enter the 2023 NFL Draft, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
In a statement, Thomas disclosed that he injured his toe in the Utes' Week 12 loss to Oregon, and rather than risking a setback in Saturday's regular-season finale in Colorado and during an upcoming bowl game, he'll turn his focus to rehabbing ahead of the draft. Over the last two seasons, Thomas has appeared in 23 games, logging 346 carries for 1,795 yards and 28 touchdowns. His absence for Week 13 should open up more opportunities for running backs Jaylon Glover (lower body), Ja'Quinden Jackson and Micah Bernard.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2019
Thomas is looking to build on his 2021 breakout as he enters the year as the unquestioned starter following his 204-carry, 1,108-yard, 21-touchdown campaign. His first month was uneven with 21 total carries but he took over down the stretch with 974 yards and 19 scores in his final nine games. Utah runs the ball 57 percent of the time, one of the highest clips in the country. Thomas’ workload will be strong again this year and with Utah expected to be a high-scoring offense yet again (36.1 PPG), Thomas’ touchdown regression may not be as harsh as expected.
At first glance, Thomas seems to have some upside from a fantasy outlook, coming off a 499-yard season in 2018 on 89 carries. However, take out the two breakout games against Alabama A&M and East Carolina and he's left with only 252 yards on 45 carries. He'll enter 2019 once again behind one of the most dangerous rushers in the country in the form of Michael Warren, but the optimists could easily talk themselves into taking the backup runner on one of the best rushing teams in the country and hoping something breaks their way.
