Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas will be sidelined for some time due to a knee injury, according to head coach Dennis Allen. It is unclear if Thomas will be placed on injured reserve. Thomas has recorded 39 catches, 448 yards, and 1 touchdown in 10 games this season. While he can be dropped in shallow to standard-sized fantasy formats, it is recommended to hold onto him in deeper leagues in case he only misses a game or two. Rashid Shaheed is expected to see increased opportunities in Thomas' absence.
