Saints place WR Michael Thomas on injured reserve

The former All-Pro will be eligible to return after the Giants game.

The New Orleans Saints have placed former All-Pro wide receiver Michael Thomas on the injured reserve with a knee injury.

Thomas will miss at least the next four games and will be eligible to return after the December 17th game against the NY Giants.

Thomas left the Week 10 matchup with the Minnesota Vikings early due to a knee injury and never returned. The long-time Saints receiver has brought in 39 receptions for 448 yards and a touchdown this season. Thomas has dealt with injury problems since 2020 and has yet to play a full season since.

Due to Thomas’ injury, New Orleans brought back wide receiver Marquez Callaway, who had a short tenure with Sean Payton and the Denver Broncos.

Thomas’ injury isn’t considered season-ending, and he is expected to be back.
