[Sports Center/Comprehensive Report] Bad news from the Saints of New Orleans!
Head coach Dennis Allen has announced that three-time star wide receiver Michael Thomas has been placed on the disabled list with a toe injury and will likely be out for the entire season.
Allen revealed that Thomas had a dislocated toe and had to undergo surgery. "I'm not going to set any timeline at this point, anyway, he's going to be on the disabled list, and I don't expect him to have a chance this season. Come on."

Thomas was injured in Week 3 against the Carolina Panthers and has not played again this season.
At that time, coach Allen was asked in an interview why Thomas was not placed on the injured list for a long time. He said that Thomas is expected to return after 4 games, and he also emphasized that Thomas is such a star-level wide receiver. Entering the injured soldier is not an easy choice, and I hope he can return to the game on schedule.
The 29-year-old Thomas entered the NFL in 2016, with a thousand yards in the new year, and was selected for the Pro Cup for three consecutive years since 2017.
In the 2019 season, he won the Pro Cup and the Team of the Year with a league-record 149 catches and a season-high 1,725 yards.
However, an injury came to the door the next year, so he only played 5 games; the 2021 season was reimbursed for the entire season.
Thomas has only played in three games this season and has 16 catches for 171 yards.
Recently, many foreign websites have sarcastically pointed out that Brian Robinson, the Washington Commander's rookie running back who was shot in a carjacking this offseason and shot 2 times in the thigh, made a successful comeback in only 4 weeks; but only injured his toe. Thomas has only played 10 games in 3 years, and his vitreous physique is unbelievable.
