Now we know why New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas only gained 17 yards Sunday. Thomas reportedly suffered a high ankle sprain during the Saints’ 34-23 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 1, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
While fantasy players might freak out about that news, Thomas reportedly believes he can play through the injury.
