News

  • Links up with Chicago

    Thompson was signed to the Bears' practice squad Tuesday, Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune reports.

    Analysis: Thompson had a tryout with the Bears on Monday, and he apparently showcased himself well enough to nab a spot on the practice squad. Chicago is dealing with some issues at running back, with David Montgomery (knee) on injured reserve and Damien Williams (illness) caught up in the COVID-19 protocols. Khalil Herbert and Ryan Nall are currently the only available tailbacks on the active roster, so Thompson could receive a promotion if Williams is unable to rejoin the team soon.

  • Released Tuesday

    Thompson was released from the 49ers' practice squad Tuesday, David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: The 30-year-old was added to the team's practice squad Sept. 22 as a result of injuries in the backfield. Now that Elijah Mitchell (shoulder) is nearing a return and the 49ers' no longer need additional running back depth, Thompson was the odd man out. He appeared in eight games for the Jaguars in 2020, notably catching 20 balls for 146 yards and a touchdown.

  • Joins Niners' practice squad

    Thompson signed with the 49ers' practice squad Wednesday, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Analysis: At his best, Thompson was one of the better passing-down backs in the league, but he's now 30 years old and hasn't played more than 11 games in a season since 2016. He has a history with 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan, who was Washington's offensive coordinator in 2013 when Thompson played all of zero offensive snaps in four games as a rookie fifth-round pick. He'll now have a chance to work his way up the depth chart for an injury-riddled 49ers team that just lost JaMycal Hasty to a knee…read more

  • Tries out with Chicago

    Thompson (back) worked out with the Bears on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

    Analysis: The Jaguars didn't re-sign Thompson after he registered seven rushes for 20 yards and 20 receptions for 146 yards and a touchdown last season. The Bears also worked out running backs Brian Hill and Wendell Smallwood on Tuesday.

  • No future in Jacksonville?

    The Jaguars may look for a new third-down back to replace Thompson (back) this offseason, Garry Smits of The Florida Times-Union reports.

    Analysis: Thompson signed a one-year contract last offseason and played in eight games before a back injury sent him to injured reserve. He finished with only seven carries for 20 yards and a 20/146/1 receiving line, while starting RB James Robinson piled up 1,070 rushing yards, 344 receiving yards and 10 total touchdowns. The Jags may want a third-down specialist to help lighten Robinson's workload in 2021, but the 30-year-old Thompson isn't likely to be that guy. After missing five or more games for a…read more

  • Sent to IR

    The Jaguars placed Thompson (back) on injured reserve Monday, John Shipley of SI.com reports.

    Analysis: Thompson suffered a back injury during Sunday's loss to the Packers, and while the team hasn't provided injury details, he'll require at least three weeks to recover. This should open the door for Devine Ozigbo (hamstring) and Dare Ogunbowale to contribute in the passing game moving forward, but James Robinson still is the bell cow, as he's handled 86.8 percent of the running back touches this year.

  • Dealing with new issue

    Thompson has been cleared from concussion evaluation, but remains questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Packers due to a back injury.

    Analysis: Thompson exited the game in the first quarter and despite clearing concussion protocol, he's still not healthy enough to return. With Thompson still sidelined, Dare Ogunbowale will continue to handle the depth running back role behind James Robinson in Sunday's game.

  • Exits contest Sunday

    Thompson left Sunday's game against the Packers and is being evaluated for a concussion.

    Analysis: Thompson was forced to leave the game following the team's first drive, so he'll need to be cleared by the NFL's independent doctors to return to action. As long as he's sidelined, expect Dare Ogunbowale to take over the depth running back role behind James Robinson in Sunday's game.

  • Totals 38 yards

    Thompson rushed once for three yards and caught all four of his targets for 35 yards during Sunday's 27-25 loss to the Texans.

    Analysis: Rookie James Robinson continues to dominate the backfield work for Jacksonville, and he had a career-high 25 carries during Sunday's contest. Thompson played 19 offensive snaps and totaled exactly 35 receiving yards for the third time this season. The veteran continues to work in a passing-down role, and his fantasy prospects remain inconsequential while Robinson is the clear No. 1 back.

  • Lifted from COVID list

    The Jaguars activated Thompson (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Analysis: Thompson returned to the team facilities Tuesday after clearing the necessary protocols, and now he's officially back on the 53-man roster. The Jaguars have a Week 8 bye, but Thompson is expected to be back in the lineup Week 9 against the Texans. The 30-year-old running back will continue to operate in a change-of-pace role behind rookie James Robinson.

  • Back at facility

    Jaguars head coach Doug Marrone said Tuesday that Thompson (illness) has been cleared to return to the team facility, John Shipley of SI.com reports.

    Analysis: The fact that Thompson is back with the team suggests that he's cleared all health-related protocols since landing on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday. Jacksonville has yet to formally reinstate Thompson to the 53-man roster, but that should happen before the team's next game Nov. 8 versus the Texans. Once activated, expect Thompson to return to a low-usage change-of-pace role behind top running back James Robinson.

  • Lands on COVID-19 list

    The Jaguars placed Thompson on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, John Shipley of SI.com reports.

    Analysis: Thompson has either tested positive for the virus or come into close contact with an infected person. Either way, he won't suit up for Sunday's game versus the Chargers, and he'll aim to return following the team's Week 8 bye. James Robinson has been the clear lead back for Jacksonville this season, but now Devine Ozigbo -- who was lifted from IR on Saturday -- could have a role along with Dare Ogunbowale.

  • Catches three passes

    Thompson caught three of four targets for 15 yards during Sunday's 34-16 loss to the Lions.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old didn't have a rushing attempt and played 20 offensive snaps compared to starter James Robinson's 44 snaps. Thompson has exceeded 40 total yards in only one game with one touchdown this season, and his fantasy value remains limited in his current role

  • Totals 42 yards

    Thompson rushed the ball twice for seven yards in the team's Week 5 loss to the Texans. He added three receptions for 35 yards.

    Analysis: Thompson was hardly a part of the team's rushing attack, accounting for just two of the 15 rushing attempts accounted for by the backfield. However, he did manage more impact in the passing game, finishing third on the team with 35 yards through the air. This was the first game that Thompson has surpassed 40 total yards, and he remains clearly behind James Robinson in the offensive pecking order.

  • Diminishing offensive role

    Thompson did not receive a carry and wasn't targeted in Sunday's 33-25 loss at Cincinnati.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old played 40-plus percent of offensive snaps the previous two weeks with the Jaguars in a negative game script, but he played only 16 of 68 snaps Sunday despite a similar game flow. James Robinson previously was mostly limited to early down work, but he dominated the backfield reps during Week 4. Thompson has four carries for 10 yards and 10 receptions for 61 yards and one touchdown through four games, but he may have an even smaller offensive role going forward.

  • Splits backfield snaps

    Thompson rushed twice for three yards and caught five of six targets for 35 yards during Thursday's 31-13 loss to the Dolphins.

    Analysis: The veteran back and rookie James Robinson both played 30 offensive snaps during the loss, though you'd never realize based on each player's production, as Robinson had 11 carries for 46 yards and two touchdowns while catching six passes for 83 yards. The playing time clearly is there for Thompson as he's played 31 and 30 offensive snaps the past two weeks, but his 65 scrimmage yards on 12 touches better illustrates his involvement in the offense. The 29-year-old is seeing plenty of snaps in…read more

  • Hauls in touchdown

    Thompson rushed twice for seven yards and caught three of four targets for 20 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 33-30 loss to Tennessee.

    Analysis: The veteran back caught a 14-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter to tie the game 30-30, but his other six touches amounted to only 13 combined yards. Thompson has had a minor role as Jacksonville's pass-catching back, but even with QB Gardner Minshew attempting 45 passes, he wasn't a consistent factor in the offense. UDFA James Robinson has clearly established himself as the team's lead back, and at this point it doesn't look like there's much more production to be had in the backfield behind…read more

  • Minor role in opener

    Thompson caught both of his targets for six yards during Sunday's 27-20 win over the Colts.

    Analysis: The 29-year-old was expected to operate in a pass-catching role to begin the season, but the Jaguars threw 20 passes Sunday while running only 47 offensive plays. The game script certainly didn't help his cause, and Thompson was outsnapped, 34-12, by rookie James Robinson. The veteran back could become a factor if Jacksonville is forced to play from behind more often, but the season opener illustrates any significant production is unlikely to be consistent.

  • Pass-catching role on tap

    Thompson will have a pass-catching role in the Jaguars' committee backfield, Garry Smits of The Florida Times-Union reports.

    Analysis: With the Jaguars cutting Leonard Fournette last week, they were left with Thompson, Ryquell Armstead (illness), Devine Ozigbo and James Robinson after cut-down day. Thompson has more experience than the rest of the backs combined, and there's an existing trust between him and offensive coordinator Jay Gruden, as the two spent the last six years together in Washington. The 29-year-old isn't expected to eat into the carries Fournette left behind because he's never logged more than 68 carries in a…read more

  • Lands one-year deal with Jaguars

    Thompson agreed to a one-year contract with the Jaguars on Friday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: After spending the first seven seasons of his career in the nation's capital, Thompson hit free agency this offseason and has found a new home close to his hometown and near his college locale of Florida State. Top running back Leonard Fournette increased his involvement in the passing game last season by posting a career-high 76 grabs, but that number should shrink with Thompson, a pass-catching specialist, in the fold.

  • Headed for free agency

    Thompson is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this upcoming offseason, Ryan Homler of NBC Sports Washington reports.

    Analysis: Thompson still offers appeal as a passing-down specialist, with potential to establish a degree of fantasy value if he lands on a team that's committed to feeding him snaps and targets. However, he's 29 years old and hasn't played more than 11 games in a season since 2016, so he may need to settle for a short-term contract without much guaranteed money. Thompson finished the 2019 campaign with 37 carries for 138 yards and 42 receptions for 378 yards on 58 targets, failing to score a touchdown…read more

  • Contributes 52 scrimmage yards

    Thompson carried eight times for 34 yards and caught all four of his targets for 18 yards during Sunday's 41-35 loss to the Giants.

    Analysis: Thompson averaged a respectable 4.3 yards per carry on a season-high eight totes, but he was uncharacteristically quiet as a receiver despite the high-scoring nature of the game. Still, his 12 touches were also his high-water mark of the season, and he should remain involved next Sunday in the season finale against the Cowboys.

  • Two receptions Sunday

    Thompson recorded two receptions on three targets for 26 yards in Sunday's loss to the Eagles.

    Analysis: Thompson did not record a single carry. It's the second straight week the veteran back's only contributions have come in the passing game -- a trend which may continue as the season winds down, even with Derrius Guice (knee) on IR.

  • Vintage receiving day in loss

    Thompson did not log any carries but brought in seven of eight targets for 43 yards in the Redskins' 20-15 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

    Analysis: The veteran pass-catching specialist was in his domain Sunday, pacing the Redskins in receptions while serving as a frequent safety valve for rookie quarterback Dwayne Haskins. Thompson benefited from Derrius Guice's early exit from the game with a knee injury, and he'd presumably be in line for more snaps if Guice is forced to miss any time. Thompson's next chance to make an impact will come in a Week 15 battle against the Eagles.

  • Makes minor impact vs. Panthers

    Thompson (toe) carried three times for 14 yards and caught one of two targets for an additional 15 yards during Sunday's 29-21 win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: Thompson, who returned from a long injury absence, was seemingly eased back into action. Meanwhile, Adrian Peterson and Derrius Guice combined for 25 touches and three touchdowns while carrying the team to an improbable road victory. Thompson could become a bigger factor in the passing game next Sunday against the Packers, but the presence of his two aforementioned teammates could limit his upside.

  • Returns to action Week 13

    Thompson (toe) is active for Sunday's game at Carolina.

    Analysis: In his first game action since Week 6, Thompson is expected to take on his usual pass-catching role out of the Redskins' backfield, causing the Redskins to make Wendell Smallwood a healthy scratch. As he joins fellow backs Adrian Peterson and Derrius Guice, it remains to be seen if Thompson will approach the 10.2 touches per game that he saw through the first six contests of the campaign.

  • On track to return

    Thompson (toe) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Carolina, but coach Bill Callahan expects the running back to be active, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Thompson is on track for his first appearance since Week 6, presumably taking over for Wendell Smallwood on passing downs. The 29-year-old likely will form a three-headed backfield along with Derrius Guice and Adrian Peterson, making it difficult to count on any one player for considerable volume or fantasy production.

    Thompson (toe) was listed as a limited on Thursday's practice report.

    Analysis: Thompson maintained his activity level from Wednesday, but interim coach Bill Callahan told John Keim of ESPN.com that the veteran back is progressing in his recovery from a turf toe injury. Whether or not Thompson makes the requisite headway and gets clearance to play Sunday at Carolina remains to be seen. Friday's report will reveal his odds to suit up for the first time since Week 6.

    Thompson (toe) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Thompson logged a trio of limited practices last week before he ultimately sat out a fifth straight game in Sunday's win over the Lions. While it's good to see the veteran maintain the same level of participation from where he left off last week, he'll probably need to upgrade to full activity before the Redskins are confident he's ready for game action. With Derrius Guice, Adrian Peterson (toe) and Wendell Smallwood all factors in the Washington backfield, Thompson may not be asked to take…read more

  • Sitting out another game

    Thompson (toe) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Lions.

    Analysis: Thompson took a step forward this week by participating in practice on a limited basis on three occasions, but the Redskins likely want to see him put in a full workout before clearing him for game action. With Thompson sidelined for a fifth straight contest, Adrian Peterson, Derrius Guice and Wendell Smallwood should be in line to split the backfield snaps in Week 12, with Peterson and Guice representing the better bets to deliver fantasy value.

    The Redskins aren't optimistic that Thompson (toe), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions, will be available to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Sidelined for the past four games with a sprained toe, Thompson put himself in the mix for a potential return this week after practicing in limited fashion from Wednesday through Friday. While Thompson isn't believed to have suffered any setbacks since he resumed practicing, the Redskins may be more inclined to see him put in an unrestricted session before clearing him for game action. His status for Week 12 will ultimately be determined after he goes through a pregame workout, but the early…read more

    Analysis: Bill Callahan said he expects Adrian Peterson (toe) to play through a questionable tag, while the coach was less confident in Thompson's availability, Craig Hoffman of 106.7 The Fan Washington reports. Even if he does end up active, Thompson likely will be restricted to passing downs. Washington's inactive list will be available around 11:30 a.m. ET on Sunday.

    Thompson (toe) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Thompson's participation level held steady from Wednesday, when he put in his first practice activity of any kind since suffering a turf toe injury in Week 6. While Thompson seems to be in a better spot on the health front compared to previous weeks, he may need to upgrade to full participation Friday in order to play Sunday against the Lions.

    Analysis: Thompson has been listed as a non-participant on every Redskins injury report issued since Oct. 11, with the string of absences being the result of a turf toe injury suffered Week 6 at Miami. In his absence, Adrian Peterson handled the bulk of the backfield reps while gutting through various injuries, but second-year back Derrius Guice returned to action last weekend versus the Jets, turning eight touches into 69 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown.

    Analysis: While Thompson took the field, Adrian Peterson didn't, leaving some question marks for the Redskins' backfield as the team begins Week 12 prep. Derrius Guice fared well in his return to action last weekend versus the Jets, playing 28 percent of the offensive snaps en route to logging eight touches for 69 yards and a touchdown.

Though Thompson will be inactive for a fourth straight game, Washington will get some reinforcement in the backfield this week with the return of Derrius Guice (knee), who was reinstated from injured reserve.
