He was set to have a $6 million cap hit on a $3.65 million salary for 2024 until Carolina restructured his contract. He played out the final year of his deal and signed a one-year deal with the Raiders for 2025.

In 2025, Thomas appeared in 15 games for the Raiders and caught 13 passes for 114 yards and no touchdowns.
