The placed wide receiver on injured reserve Saturday with an ankle injury, meaning he will miss the remainder of the regular season.
According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Saints expect Thomas to be "close to 100 percent" for the playoffs, however.
The ankle ailment has lingered for Thomas since he suffered it in Week 1 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. As a result, he missed six games before returning in Week 9.
Per Schefter, Thomas' ankle was unable to heal properly with him going through practices and games, which led to the decision to place him on IR.
