Back to the New Orleans Saints Newsfeed

Remember when other teams passed on Michael Thomas in the draft? So does Thomas.

After New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas hauled in a franchise record 16 passes in a losing effort against the Buccaneers last week, the response was not quite as apathetic as a shrug, but it was close to that.

"When the ball is in the air with Drew, I trust him -- he doesn't make bad decisions," Thomas said. "If he is throwing it my way I'm going to try to find a way to come down with it."

The point is that after catching nearly 196 passes for 2,382 yards in his first two seasons, monster performances like the one Thomas turned in against Tampa Bay last week are almost to be expected.
