Michael Thomas

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas returned to a limited practice on Thursday.

Thomas picked up a hamstring injury that caused him to be ruled out for Week 7, but his return to practice on a Thursday suggests that he may be able to get cleared for Week 8. His return to the practice field does not guarantee that he will be cleared, but it certainly leaves room for optimism. He was able to log a limited practice session today, and even if he is limited again tomorrow, he should be cleared to play. Thomas will be a WR1 against Chicago if he is cleared.
