Didn't see another thread I could ask this in. Saw tweets yesterday saying they didn't see him with the rest of the team.

Anyways, here's some pics.

Payton said twice Thomas had an excused absence and wouldn’t elaborate.

Suspended for not being friendly when he picked up that to-go order as first reported right here.

He's excused, so that tells us one of two things:

He wants a new contract like Julio

or

He has some things he has to do that couldn't be postponed

Teams don't excuse players when they want a new contract.

Likely personal stuff he needs to attend to and we should respect that.

Payton could always be giving lip service and saying oh he was excused instead of throwing him under the bus and creating a media frenzy

Two days ago Thomas was shopping in NYC according to Instagram if that counts for anything.

Wouldn't make sense as he showed up to OTAs which aren't mandatory, but is missing minicamp which is.

Why show up to the practices which they can't fine you for missing but miss the ones they can?

It's not the helmet itself, but just seeing Brees in a different helmet from what we've seen since forever.
