Travis Thomas
Edit ProfileCareer
He was signed by the Cleveland Browns as an undrafted free agent in 2008. He played college football at Notre Dame. He also played outside linebacker in 2002 and made 137 tackles, which helped bring his team to a 15-0 season and a Pennsylvania Class Associate of Arts state title.
During the 2005 College Football season, Thomas saw action chiefly on special teams (in all 12 games) and also as a reserve halfback (in 10 games).
As halfback he rushed 63 times for 248 yards with a total of five touchdowns. On special teams he made a total of 132 appearances throughout the season with seven tackles.
In 2006 he was moved to the position of linebacker because of his speed and physicality with Coach Charlie Weis"s blessing and was appointed captain of special teams. He proved valuable to the Irish as a flexible player with his ability to play both offense and defense.
Thomas moved back to halfback for the 2007 season and was named a captain along with Tom Zbikowski, Maurice Crum Junior., John Sullivan, and John Carlson.
He served primarily as a goalline back and led the team in rushing touchdowns. Cleveland Browns
Thomas went undrafted in the 2008 NFL Draft and was subsequently signed by the Cleveland Browns. He was waived/injured on August 30.
