New Orleans Saints: Wide receiver depth chart moving forward

With the recent signing of former 2013 third-round pick Kenny Stills to the practice squad, do the New Orleans Saints now have enough talent at wide receiver to survive without Michael Thomas?

The Saints have a huge hole to fill at wide receiver. With Thomas set to miss at least the first six weeks of the season after having surgery to repair a lingering ankle injury, the Saints need someone to step up in a big way.

As if being without Thomas wasn’t enough, Tre’Quan Smith, who was expected to finally have a breakout season after training all offseason with new starting quarterback Jameis Winston, was placed on IR with a hamstring injury and will miss at least three weeks.
