James Thrash (born April 28, 1975) is a wide receiver for the Washington Redskins of the NFL.
He was signed as a rookie free agent out of Missouri Southern State College by the Philadelphia Eagles in 1997, but quickly released and signed by the Redskins during training camp. He played four seasons with the Redskins and won the team's "Unsung Hero" award in 2000 before signing with the Eagles. After three seasons with the Eagles, including one as their leading receiver, the Redskins eagerly traded a draft pick to the Eagles for the chance to bring him back to Washington. He has been a valued contributor on special teams since his return, and in the later parts of the 2006 season, has made some clutch catches in the endzone and on third downs. According to the team website, Thrash is beginning to earn the moniker "Mr. Clutch."
