Tight end Houston Thomas, a College Station native, is returning home via the transfer portal for his final season of college football after three seasons at UTSA.
During his time in the Alamo City, the 6-foot-5, 245-pounder caught 78 passes for 918 yards (11.5 average) and five touchdowns.
This past season, he hauled in 34 receptions for 347 yards — a slight dip from a 2024 campaign that saw him nab the same number of catches for 470 yards.
As a senior at College Station, Thomas featured primarily as a wide receiver. He camped in front of Jimbo Fisher's staff on multiple occasions and had the Aggies really thinking about offering due to his long-term upside. Since then, he has added the requisite weight and strength to play tight end while maintaining his natural ball skills that were apparent early on in his development. He's an impressive route runner for his size.
Thomas graduated from College Station in the same class as Mike Elko's son. He's the first commitment out of the transfer portal in this window.
We'll have more upcoming for our TexAgs Premium subscribers.
