Michael Thomas is out

Tweaked his hamstrung during practice yesterday. He's not being traded. 

 

Also Emmanuel Sanders is out on the Covid list. Keep an eye out for Marquez Callaway. There's a lot of buzz,  both local and some national on him. He's not as polished and doesn't have the bulk,  but he has a lot of the same attributes as Thomas and he's faster.

What's the plan for NO after the Drew Brees era? Hill can't throw it 5 yards. They might as well blow it up after this season and get what they can for Thomas, why not? 

They have Winston. The kid is talented, just lacking discipline. You should know, you're a Winstonite! :lol:

Not sure where you're getting that Hill can't throw 5 yards.

 

 

But yeah,  I agree with Shaft that Winston is the most likely candidate to replace Brees as long as he sticks around.

Great point. Can Jamie's Winston assume the position?

I see no reason why he can't. Decision making and knowing the offense would be my key concerns with him,  but he'll certainly have enough time there to be ready.

Glad I stashed him in my leagues.

Injured how bad?

Looks like it'll be a sprain. He hobbled off the field without being able to put much weight on it and went into the tent with help. Afterwards seen limping to the locker room.

Callaway is saying he's fine. Hope that's true. Next week he should see some time again, even if Michael Thomas is back with Emmanuel Sanders on the covid list.

 

Callaway ended the day 8 of 10 for 75yds, but also missed out on two touchdowns through no fault of his own that also would have put him well over 100 yds. One was the one mentioned above where TQS was called for pass interference and it was a bad call and the other where Callaway broke down the sideline and Brees targeted him for what would have been a sure touchdown, but the pressure got to Brees before he could get the throw off. CGM should be back next week, hopefully and Sanders the week after, so we'll see how that affects Callaway's playing time.

Who is CGM? Does he play for the Saints?    Thanks for the tip on Callaway checking him out.
