METAIRIE, La. — Saints receiver Michael Thomas sounds eager to accept the responsibility of being a "No. 1" receiver in New Orleans' prolific offense, even if he doesn't necessarily like such labels.
"Whatever I have to do to add value to this team and put points on the board, that's what I'm going to do and do it at a high level," Thomas said after practice at Saints training camp Saturday. "If I'm No. 1, No. 2, whatever I am ... I'm going to do it to the best of my ability and, ultimately, every time I touch (the ball), I'm going to try to score.
