Summer Spotlight - Logan Thomas

Logan Thomas returns home (sort of) to try and elevate his career at the tight end spot. Can the former Hokie get it done?

Former Virginia Tech Hokie quarterback Logan Thomas, who has now converted to a tight end, has become an interesting player in the eyes of fans. 

Nobody can replace former stud Jordan Reed and Thomas is not even close to his equal but coming around on Thomas and his specified role for Washington, was not as difficult for others.

Thomas is entering his first year in Washington with only 35 receptions in his three years as a professional tight end with something to prove. Take a look at Thomas as he enters the "Summer Spotlight."

Inside the Numbers:

Logan Thomas, who was with the Detroit Lions, finished his 2019 campaign with 16 games played (three starts), 16 catches (28 targets), one touchdown (against Washington), and a 57.1 catch rate.
