Jamari Thrash

Wide Receiver · Louisville

A downfield threat out of Louisville by way of Georgia State who is still working to translate his college production to the NFL.

Jamari Thrash is a wide receiver for the Cleveland Browns, a fifth-round pick in 2024 who built his college resume with four seasons at Georgia State before a strong final year at Louisville. He is the first Louisville player Cleveland has drafted since Charles Gaines in 2015.

★ First-team All-Sun Belt (2022, Georgia State)

★ Fifth-round pick, 2024 NFL Draft

Path to the league

Thrash played four seasons at Georgia State (2019-2022), earning First-team All-Sun Belt honors in 2022 after posting 62 receptions for 1,122 yards and 7 touchdowns, then transferred to Louisville for his final college season in 2023. Across his college career he totaled 167 receptions for 2,610 yards and 18 touchdowns, and the Cleveland Browns selected him in the fifth round, 156th overall, of the 2024 NFL Draft.

Career highlights

Thrash's best individual game at Louisville came against Indiana in 2023, when he caught 4 passes for 159 yards including an 85-yard touchdown. He ran a 4.46-second 40-yard dash, underscoring the deep-threat speed that made him a draftable prospect despite concerns about drops in college.

2025 season recap

Thrash's playing time has remained limited early in his career; as a rookie in 2024 he appeared in nine games and caught 3 passes for 22 yards. Cleveland waived and re-signed him in December 2025 before re-signing him again in April 2026, reflecting his ongoing fight for a consistent roster spot.
