Did he play in a meaningful game and produce today? That 3rd spot is very much up in the air.
Keeping in mind Gordon isn't actually on the active roster yet, I don't see any tough decisions. You have Edelman, Dorsett, Harry, Meyers, with the 5th spot going to Thomas until proven otherwise because even a declining Thomas is better than the upside of Braxton Berrios.
Maybe an argument could be made for Maurice Harris over Thomas but I'm not so sure. I just think that "meaningful game" argument is meaningless when it applies to everyone else in the group except for Edelman and Dorsett (who, while a safe bet to be a decent depth WR if necessary, has no signs of upside besides his speed). Past that, you can only judge by how they looked in camp and/or preseason, or in Thomas' case the way he looked pre-Achilles. It's definitely a big question mark whether he even gets back to that form. But while his contract isn't a guarantee of anything, the incentives show confidence on at least someone's part that he can bounce back.
