Jai'Den Thomas Injury: Expected to play vs. Hawaii

UNLV head coach Dan Mullen expects Thomas (hamstring) to play in Friday's game against Hawaii, The Scarlet Standard reports.

Thomas was able to participate in practice this week, and he'll now likely be able to suit up against Hawaii. The starting running back's true designation should be decided based on pregame warm-ups, but he's currently trending in the right direction. He's recorded 103 carries for 780 yards and eight touchdowns across nine appearances this season.
