Brandon Marcello of SEC Country reported the news and featured comments from Malzahn, who said, "Roc Thomas has asked for his release from Auburn, and I have granted his request. We wish him nothing but the best moving forward."

Thomas ran for 475 yards and three touchdowns on 86 rushing attempts and had 17 catches for 227 yards and another score in his two seasons with the Tigers. He was in the process of converting to slot receiver this spring, per Marcello.
