Michael Thomas A Low-End WR1 Against Tampa Bay
4 years agoNew Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (ankle, hamstring) appears ready to take the field for the first time since Week 1. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport confirmed earlier reports about Thomas, saying he's likely good to go barring a setback after a good week of practice. It's more than likely he's out there, though it would still be prudent to have a backup plan just in case, considering it's a Sunday night contest. When Thomas last played the Buccaneers, he was held to just three catches for 17 yards. However, New Orleans has clearly missed Thomas on the outside. Even if he's limited in some fashion, expect around 8-10 targets and a decent chance at a touchdown in this pivotal divisional matchup.
