NEW ORLEANS -- Michael Thomas isn’t messing around.
The New Orleans Saints' receiver might break Marvin Harrison’s NFL record of 143 catches in a season by the end of Week 16. Thomas is 10 back after catching a total of 23 passes the past two weeks.
Even more staggering: “Can’t Guard Mike” needs 28 catches to break the NFL record for most receptions in the first five seasons of a player’s career. He is still in year four.
“I’m not really focused on that. I’m just trying to go to the Super Bowl,” Thomas said Monday night when asked about approaching Harrison’s record.
