Detroit Lions have hands full with Saints' WR Michael Thomas but they'll get some help

For the third straight week, it appears as if the Detroit Lions will face one of the best wide receivers in the NFL.

New Orleans Saints receiver Michael Thomas returned to practice on a limited basis Wednesday after missing the last two games with a hamstring injury.

Thomas led the NFL in receptions the last two seasons and had a career-high 1,725 receiving yards last fall, the seventh-highest total in NFL history.
