Solomon Thomas didn't step onto a football field until he was in the 8th grade. And by then, Thomas was already 6-foot-4 and 280 pounds. Yet, even though he knew he loved football, it took him a while to develop. And he credits former Jacksonville Raines High football player Solomon Kindley for a lot of his improvement. “Freshman year coming in I didn’t know anything,” Thomas told News 4 Jax. “I was just a big kid that was athletic. Sol got a hold of me because of course we hold the same name. So, he coached me up well and that’s pretty much where I get most of my technique from.” But he knew he loved football the second he put on the helmet. “When football got ahold of me, it’s never let me go.” Thomas said.

Solomon Thomas' physicality as a run blocker, build and positional versatility reminds us of Cody Ford. Thomas is longer than Ford.
