Saints place WR Michael Thomas (knee) on IR

Saints head coach Dennis Allen noted that receiver Michael Thomas could miss some time with a knee injury. Now we know that will be at least four weeks.

Thomas has been placed on injured reserve, New Orleans announced on Tuesday.

Related players: Chris Olave, Rashid Shaheed, A.T. Perry

Fantasy Impact: 

it’s a tough break for Thomas, who had played just 10 games over the last three seasons due to injury. In 2023, Thomas has caught 39 passes for 448 yards with a touchdown, the story said. With Thomas out, Olave should continue to operate as the team's WR1 but Shaheed could see a step up in snaps and workload as well.
