I just don't see him getting the axe.

Given the team's patience with Kelly, I would really be surprised to see Thomas get dropped.

Like him on special teams as much as the next guy, but it's not good when a really on the bubble guy can't even get on the field.

Kelly, I think, would have been a very easy cut -- it's not like he has a great shot to make the team next year. But if Shanny already knows Thomas is gone, it makes more sense to not dump Kelly at the same time.

With that said, every spot is open after Moss and Armstrong. Still skeptical that Galloway or Wade or Roydell Williams have a chance to make it, but this team does have more invested in both Banks and Austin than Thomas. I think that's a really bad sign for Thomas, especially now that we know Kelly is going to open next offseason with the team.
