During his junior season at Merritt Island High School, Thomas caught 41 passes for 570 yards and five touchdowns while rushing 24 times for 97 yards and six more scores. He also totaled 31 tackles, two tackles for loss, and one sack on defense.
Thomas recorded a season-high four catches for 94 yards and a touchdown in a 39-8 victory against Palm Bay High School on September 12.
