Coach Doug Pederson said Monday that Thomas is day-to-day with his heel injury, John Shipley of SI.com reports.
Thomas has been sidelined with a heel issue for almost two weeks now, but it seems like he's now close to suiting back up. If he makes Jacksonville's final 53-man roster for 2024, it will probably be as a special-teams ace.

Jaguars' Daniel Thomas: Past forearm injury
Thomas (forearm) was spotted participating in Thursday's practice, Bob Self of the Florida Times-Union reports.
Thomas missed the final two games of Jacksonville's 2023 campaign due to a forearm injury, but it now appears that he's moved past the issue. The Auburn product has played almost strictly on special teams over the past two years (480 of 526 total snaps on special teams), and he's expected to compete for a similar role ahead of the Jaguars' 2024 season.

Jaguars' Daniel Thomas: Re-ups with Jags
Jacksonville and Thomas (forearm) agreed to terms Thursday on a contract extension, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Thomas' new contract is reportedly a two-year deal worth up to $6 million, per Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com. The fifth-year veteran is working his way from a season-ending forearm fracture, but that doesn't seem likely to significantly impact his offseason work. In addition to being a standout on special teams, Thomas is capable of contributing as a backup at safety.

The 2020 fifth-round pick made his first start of the season and played 88 percent of the defensive snaps with Rayshawn Jenkins (ankle) on injured reserve and Andrew Wingard (undisclosed) on the reserve/COVID-19 list. Thomas should serve as the No. 3 safety in Week 18 if Wingard remains sidelined, otherwise he'll likely receive another start.

Jaguars' Daniel Thomas: Lands on injured reserve
Thomas (arm) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.
Coach Doug Marrone said the arm injury will cause the 22-year-old to miss "considerable time," so a move to IR isn't surprising. Andrew Wingard is poised to take over starting duties at strong safety since previous starter Josh Jones (chest) is also on IR. Thomas will be eligible to return Dec. 20 at Baltimore, though it's unclear how long he's expected to be sidelined.

Jaguars' Daniel Thomas: Set to miss multiple games
Coach Doug Marrone said Monday that Thomas (arm) will miss "considerable time," John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.
Marrone handed Thomas, Josh Allen (knee) and D.J. Hayden (knee) the same timeline to return, which wasn't definitive but hints at a multi-game absence for each player. Thomas started his second game of the year in Sunday's loss to the Steelers because Josh Jones (chest) is on IR, and it appears the Jaguars will deploy their third starting strong safety in four games Week 12. Andrew Wingard is the top candidate to take Thomas' place.

Jaguars' Daniel Thomas: Jacksonville adds in fifth round
The Jaguars selected Thomas in the fifth round of the 2020 NFL Draft, 157th overall.
The Jaguars are already loaded at safety, but Thomas (5-foot-11, 215 pounds) presented a compelling value this late in the draft. The Auburn product has a dense frame and slightly above average athleticism to go with it (4.51-second 40, 37-inch vertical). The Auburn defense was among the best in the SEC the last two years, both of which featured leading contributions from Thomas.
