Ambry Thomas: Everything you need to know

The Vikings signed Thomas (forearm) to their practice squad Tuesday, Craig Peters of the team's official site reports. Thomas suffered a fractured forearm in training camp and was waived from the 49ers' injured reserve Dec. 17. He was claimed by Indianapolis two days later but didn't end up with the organization due to a failed physical. However, Thomas appears to now be healthy, and he'll look to impress the playoff-bound Vikings during his time on their practice squad.

The Colts failed Thomas' (forearm) physical Thursday after having claimed him off waivers from the 49ers on Wednesday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports. Thomas hasn't yet fully healed from the forearm fracture he suffered during training camp, so he won't ultimately join Indianapolis' 53-man roster. The fourth-year pro will look to get fully healthy and then search for another opportunity to sign with a team.

The Colts claimed Thomas (forearm) off waivers Wednesday, Joel Erickson of IndyStar.com reports. Thomas has been on injured reserve for the entire regular season after he broke his forearm in a preseason game against the Titans in August. He was waived by the 49ers on Tuesday, but he has quickly found a new home with the Colts and will provide depth at linebacker behind Grant Stuard, Zaire Franklin and E.J. Speed (knee).
