Michael Thomas (ankle) managing reps at Saints practice
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (ankle) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice for Week 13 versus the Atlanta Falcons.
What It Means:
Thomas will be fine for Sunday's game. He caught 4 passes on 6 targets for 50 yards in Taysom Hill's second start, leading the Saints in every category in a blowout victory over the quarterback-less Denver Broncos. The Saints may need to utilize Thomas more against a Falcons team that has been playing better in recent weeks. Per FanDuel Sportsbook, the Saints are 3.0-point favorites over the Falcons.
Thomas is the WR10 in numberFire's Week 13 fantasy rankings. Our models project him for 9.7 targets and 13.7 FanDuel points versus Atlanta. Thomas is averaging 11.0 FanDuel points in Hills' two starts.
