Fine player, very versatile. Unfortunately, a knee injury essentially ended his career even though he played one more season (as a reserve) after coming back from surgery.Jim Bertelsen

I think Thomas' short time in the bright spotlight was in 1980? I remember in the Monday night game vs Dallas, the Rams wore white since teams liked to force Dallas into their dark blue jerseys. Thomas had a big game.Jewerl Thomas.

Not sure where you got that info but, from memory, I knew the Houston game never took place.During the 1974 NFL season, the Los Angeles Rams primarily wore their royal blue jerseys at home, but they elected to wear their white jerseys for exactly two home regular season games: [1, 2]
- Week 4 (October 6, 1974): A 16–13 victory over the Houston Oilers, where McCutcheon rushed for 151 yards.
- Week 10 (November 17, 1974): A 21–0 victory over the Atlanta Falcons, where McCutcheon rushed for 140 yards. [1, 2, 3]
