Beat writer Les Bowen of the Philly Daily News gives Thomas a shaky endorsement at perhaps the Birds' worst position:
Safeties (4): The starters are Kurt Coleman and Nate Allen, and the only other guy on the roster I'd keep is O.J. Atogwe, and I have a suspicion he might need to play well against the Jets to make the team. Would not waste any more time with Jaiquawn Jarrett. The Eagles might, if nothing pops loose as other teams cut down. Phillip Thomas? Maybe, but I have a feeling the fourth guy is somebody who isn't here yet. Colt Anderson probably goes to PUP and resurfaces Week 6. Let's pencil in undrafted rookie Thomas for now, very lightly.
At the least, I think he'll make the practice squad and likely play at some point this year.
