2022 Buckeyes in the NFL Fantasy Football Preview: Michael Thomas

In 2019, Michael Thomas produced one of the greatest seasons an NFL wide receiver has ever had... ever. He set an NFL record with 149 receptions (on 185 targets!), and totaled 1,725 yards and 9 touchdowns. This followed a 2018 season in which we racked up 125 receptions and 1,405 yards, to go with an identical 9 TD. All told, over his first four seasons, Thomas averaged 118 receptions, 1,378 yards, and 8 TD.

He was named to the Pro Bowl in three of those seasons (robbed as a rookie), received two First-Team All Pro nods, earned the distinction of 2019 Offensive Player of the Year, and was generally recognized as one of the best receivers in the game.
