My favorite play of the half by Lamar Jackson. -Multiple reads. -Efficient movement until truly threatened. -Ball security. -Sees pocket advantage and returns to being a thrower. -More ball security. -Finds open man and accurate throw. -23-yard gain, FG range, 50-yarder.

Thompson is a stronger Tarik Cohen with not quite the vertical receiving skill but excellent quicks, contact balance, and STRENGTH. This guy is like Dion Lewis with Thump. He can develop into a focal point RB as a hybrid guy with the right scheme. KC is that scheme.
