The resilient Thompkins eventually earned his way onto the active roster last season after initially earning a practice squad spot following final cuts. The undrafted Utah State product recorded his first five regular-season receptions across five games and logged 324 return yards as well. Thompkins totaled 122 snaps overall in 2022, but he's now fighting for the No. 3 WR job with Trey Palmer and David Moore after Russell Gage suffered a season-ending injury in training camp.
