Even with his injury in year one, Thomas had ample opportunity to step up.

In light of (1) the rookie Jarret's versatility (in addition to safety, he is practicing in the slot corner as well), (2) the return of Ihenacho, (3) the acquisition of Johnson and Goldson,(4) the fact that T. Robinson by-passed him in special teams, and (5) the current coaching staff and GM did not draft him, he was a long shot (at best) to make the roster.

This was a mercy cut.
