Former Georgia WR RaRa Thomas enters transfer portal, per report

Former Georgia WR RaRa Thomas is seeking another college football opportunity.
According to Pete Nakos of On3, Thomas has entered his name into the NCAA transfer portal.
In August, ahead of the 2024 college football season, Thomas was kicked off the Georgia football team after a July arrest on 2 counts of misdemeanor battery and 1 count of felony cruelty to children. All charges carried a “family violence” distinction on Athens-Clarke County records.
The July arrest brought renewed attention to another family violence incident. In January 2023, Thomas was charged with false imprisonment (felony) and battery (misdemeanor). Those charges were dropped as part of a pretrial diversion program.
Thomas transferred from Mississippi State to Georgia ahead of the 2023 season. Last year, he recorded 23 catches for 383 yards and 1 touchdown in 11 games, missing the final three contests due to injury. Thomas had his most productive game as a Bulldog against Kentucky, logging 5 catches for 63 yards and a score in a 51-13 UGA victory.
In two seasons at MSU, Thomas totaled 62 catches for 887 yards and 12 touchdowns. In 2022, he had a 5-catch, 134-yard performance in a 42-24 Mississippi State win over Texas A&M.
Thomas was expected to be a key part of Georgia’s passing offense in 2024.
