  • Michael Thomas: Suspension lifted
    By RotoWire

    Thomas, who remains a free agent, had his one-game suspension lifted by the NFL on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Thomas will now be eligible to play and participate in all club activities if he can sign with a new team. The 31-year-old wideout could struggle to find such an opportunity, however, after he spent the entire offseason as a free agent and has appeared in just 20 games since the beginning of the 2020 season. Thomas racked up 39 catches for 448 yards and one touchdown over his 10 appearances with the Saints in 2023 before suffering a knee injury, though he's seemingly healthy now.

  • Michael Thomas: Handed one-game suspension
    By RotoWire

    The NFL suspended Thomas (knee) on Friday one game for violation of the personal conduct policy, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Thomas, who currently remains a free agent, won't be eligible to play Week 2 of the 2024 season due to discipline relating to an incident from fall of 2023. The 31-year-old veteran spent the entire offseason without a new home after being cut by the Saints back in March, and it remains to be seen whether he'll suit up this season even once his suspension is lifted. He played the first 10 games of 2023 with New Orleans before going down with a knee injury.

  • Michael Thomas: Hits free agency
    By RotoWire

    Thomas (knee) became a free agent after the Saints designated him as a post-June 1 cut, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports. Under the terms of his contract, Thomas was technically signed beyond 2024, but he had some unusual bonuses attached to his deal that enabled the Saints to cut him loose. He's now free to sign with any team, but it's unclear how much of a market there might be for a 31-year-old wideout who has massed significant time over the past four seasons. A knee injury cost Thomas the final seven games of the 2023 campaign, but it's unclear where he currently stands in his recovery.

  • Saints' Michael Thomas: Will be cut soon
    By RotoWire

    The Saints plan to release Thomas (knee) soon, Jeff Duncan of The Athletic reports. The structure of Thomas' contract all but guarantees he'll be released before March 13 when the new league year starts. He turned 31 a few days ago and has been with the Saints since they took him in the second round of the 2016 NFL Draft, but he's played just 20 games in four years since setting a league record with 149 receptions in 2019. Thomas averaged 117.5 catches for 1,378 yards and eight touchdowns over the first four seasons of his career, before an ankle injury Week 1 of 2020 started his run of misfortune. A knee injury cost him the final seven games of 2023, but there hasn't been any report of Thomas needing surgery.

  • Thomas (knee) caught 39 of 64 targets for 448 yards and one touchdown in 10 games during the 2023 season. For the fourth consecutive season, Thomas struggled to stay on the field due to injuries. The 30-year-old wideout appeared in double-digit games for the first time since his record-setting 2019 season, but he still missed the final seven contests of the year while on IR with a right knee injury. Thomas continued to put up similar numbers on a per-reception basis compared to the majority of his career, averaging 11.5 yards per catch. However, his overall production was curbed by the presence of Chris Olave, who has taken on a role as the Saints' No. 1 receiver since being selected in the first round of the 2022 NFL Draft. Thomas finished with one fewer reception despite seeing nine more targets than his seven-game 2020 season, and he fell short of 500 receiving yards for the fourth straight season. He will enter the final season of his five-year, $96.25 million contract, and he is currently set to cost about $12.4 million against the Saints' cap in 2024.
