New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis was asked out of the gate about Michael Thomas during yesterday’s press conference, and he took a fairly diplomatic approach.
Loomis said the injury was treated conservatively during the season, had a few issues, and it was decided he would treat it conservatively and it would heal.
He said they collectively made the call to have the surgery in June after learning it didn't heal when mini camp arrived. https://t.co/2l8TrbNrPi— Christopher Dunnells (@ChrisDunnells) July 28, 2021Loomis made it sound like Michael Thomas was left with no choice but to have his controversial surgery in June only after conservative treatment measures failed.
