New Orleans Saints star wide receiver Michael Thomas is expected to miss several weeks with a high-ankle sprain.
#Saints star WR Michael Thomas' high-ankle injury is worse than originally believed, and he’s now expected to miss several weeks, sources tell me and @RapSheet.

Thomas is as tough as they come and surely will try to defy that timeline. But it'll be a battle.
Fantasy Impact
Well this SUCKS! If you have Michael Thomas on your fantasy roster, I feel for you. The Saints will now rely on Emmanuel Sanders and Tre’Quan Smith to help move the offense, along with Jared Cook and obviously Alvin Kamara. Hopefully Thomas will be able to come back 100% but until then, buy Sanders and Cook EVERYWHERE YOU CAN.
