Michael Thomas (foot) officially out for Saints on Sunday
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (foot) is out for Week 4 against the Minnesota Vikings in London on Sunday.
What It Means:
Thomas sat out practice all week after injuring his foot in Week 3. Chris Olave and Jarvis Landry (ankle) should have larger target shares in London on Sunday, and there will also be more snaps available for Tre'Quan Smith (concussion). Alvin Kamara (ribs) is another potential beneficiary from Thomas' absence.
numberFire's models expect Olave to lead the Saints with 8.3 targets, followed by Landry (6.2) and then Kamara (4.7). Prior to Thursday night's game, the Vikings were ranked 19th in FanDuel points allowed per game to the wide receiver position.
