Michael Thomas (foot) to fully participate for Saints
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (foot) will be a full participant at the start of training camp on Wednesday, per head coach Dennis Allen.
What It Means:
Thomas is ready to go after he was limited earlier this offseason while recovering from November toe surgery. The 30-year-old wideout has played in just 10 games over the past three seasons, but Thomas is expected be the No. 2 option for Derek Carr behind Chris Olave. In three games last year with inferior quarterback play, Thomas averaged a consistent 7.3 targets, 5.3 catches, and 57.0 yards with 3 touchdowns.
MT is the WR44 in numberFire's preseason rankings and our models project him for 97.9 targets, 70.0 receptions, 777.4 yards, and 4.08 touchdowns. He registered a 68.0% offensive snap rate, 19.6% target share, and 1.71 yards per route run in his three appearances last season.
