Background

Early life

Thomas was born in Pompano Beach, Florida. His father, Harvey, played defensive end and tight end for the Florida Gators from 1988 to 1992. His mother's family had a tradition of names beginning with the letter R, but she preferred the name Mason, so he was named R Mason (the R does not stand for anything). Thomas attended Cardinal Gibbons High School in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Over his junior and senior seasons he combined for 109 tackles and 19 sacks. He originally committed to play college football at Iowa State University before changing to the University of Oklahoma.

As a true freshman at Oklahoma in 2022, Thomas played in 10 games and had seven tackles and 0.5 sacks. As a sophomore he played in nine games and finished with nine tackles and one sack.
