Rodney Thomas was selected in the 7th Round of the 2022 NFL Draft by the Indianapolis Colts making him the first Yale selection since 2018. Thomas is officially listed as a cornerback for the Colts and will have to compete with a deep stable of cornerbacks including Pro Bowler Kenny Moore II and Stephon Gilmore, the 2019 NFL Defensive Player of the Year. Given Thomas’ speed and explosiveness, we see him as a key special teams contributor early in his career.

Love these types of updates! Keep up the great work. Go dogs
Last year was tough post/Covid, lots of turnover, initial quarterback controversy
This year should be much better.
Go Bulldogs!
As stated Reno’s update from March 17, The Yale football commit list will updated May 1st.. Well it’s 13 days and guess what , where is the update. Come on.!!! Freaking Joke
Anybody notice how our crews absolutely dominated the Eastern Sprints?
Yes, and the heavyweight 1 V did it without its Kiwi stroke, one of the most dominant oarsman in Yale history.
Wish football had that kind of depth – 2V and 3V crews won too, so moving rowers up to 1V had no negative impact on those boats. When football looses a key player it’s usually a big drop off to the next man up and it takes at least 3 games to groom a substitute..
Gladstone is the Nick Saban of crew – he took a program that was a disaster and turned it into the Alabama of rowing. He’s developed a systematic pipeline of recruits and Y has now replaced H as the top program in the country. Take note Tony Reno and Keith Allain.
Yes, Gladstone’s a wizard. He’s won national championships at Brown, California, and now with us. Long may he wave.
Good Luck to the Yale men’s Lacrosse team tomorrow. Beat them Tigers.!!
