Thomas to miss first exhibition game: Redskins rookie receiver Devin Thomas probably will miss the team's first exhibition game after pulling his right hamstring in practice Thursday. Washington's top pick in this year's draft is expected to miss about two weeks of training camp. That timetable would keep Thomas out of the Aug. 3 Hall of Fame game against the Indianapolis Colts. "We're going to see after two weeks how this thing looks. He may be ready in two weeks; it may be a few days later," Redskins coach Jim Zorn said. "We'll see how fast he can work himself into full speed." Thomas was optimistic that he will miss less than two weeks. Still, Zorn acknowledged there's a "learning curve" for any rookie. "He's got to nurse this thing back a little bit, but it doesn't mean he can't learn, pay attention," Zorn said. (Updated 07/24/2008).
Injury Report
Hamstring - Questionable for Aug. 3 preseason game vs. Indianapolis (Updated - 7/24/08)
Fantasy Analysis
Thomas should be OK and not miss much time. He has the chance to be a decent Fantasy option as a rookie, but any setback could hurt his chances of playing time this year. For now, consider Thomas a low-end reserve in seasonal leagues and a second-round pick in rookie-only drafts. (Updated 07/24/2008).
