Michael Thomas dealing with "a little of a hamstring" issue

Aug 21, 2022

Saints WR Michael Thomas missed Sunday's practice with a hamstring injury.

Fantasy Impact:

HC Dennis Allen called it "a little bit of a hamstring issue", but it's still a little concerning any time we hear about an injury with Thomas, who missed all of 2021 with an ankle injury. He has been able to practice but has not played in a game at all yet this preseason and you probably can assume he will not play in the final preseason game against the Chargers. We are three weeks away from the Saints' regular-season opener against the Falcons. Thomas has holding an ADP of about 55, going off as WR27 on Underdog. Jarvis Landry and rookie Chris Olave would take on more work if Thomas misses any time.

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
