Michael Thomas Could Shine In Week 5
5 years agoNew Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas has seen a drop in production with quarterback Teddy Bridgewater at the helm. The 26-year-old has gotten just 16 looks throughout the past two weeks, a 10-target decrease from the first two games of the season. Additionally, he has hauled in only 14 receptions (with one touchdown) in Weeks 3 and 4 combined, while also accumulating just 149 receiving yards during that same span. However, things could turn around for Thomas in Week 5 against a Buccaneers Defense that flourishes at stopping the run but struggles defending the pass, allowing a league-worst 338 receiving yards per game. Thomas should be considered a must-start in all formats, even with the unproductive Bridgewater under center on Sunday.
