Michael Thomas A WR1 At Home For Week 16
6 years agoNew Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas caught seven passes for 49 yards in the Saints win over the Panthers in Week 15. Thomas is averaging only 8.2 yards per catch over his last three games but the Saints offense returns home to take on the Steelers in Week 16. The Steelers defense has been tough on receivers this season, allowing the 13th fewest fantasy points to the position and have allowed only one 100-yard game to a receiver since Week 5. But they still have allowed 14 touchdowns to receivers and Thomas has enjoyed some huge performances playing at home this season. In six home games this season, Thomas has 52 receptions for 684 yards and five touchdowns. There is a strong chance that Thomas delivers for fantasy championship weekend and will be a WR1 play against the Steelers in Week 16.
