Thomas (knee) was limited at practice Wednesday, Mike Jones of the Washington Post reports.

Analysis:

Thomas was Washington's second-most utilized running back in Week 16, turning four carries into 22 yards and seven of eight targets into 67 yards. Because head coach Jay Gruden has hinted that he'll rest some of his key players in the season finale, Thomas could take advantage of a backfield without a resting Alfred Morris. However, Thomas must first escape Week 17 prep unscathed.
