Probably should shoot for 2024 and negotiate a big raise!

I may be on an island here but I believe Thomas is going to go off this season. He's basically on a 1 year prove it deal and he knows a lot of money is riding on him showing out.

My prediction is he will ball out and earn a big payday from someone other than the Saints.

Good luck to him enjoying his next team's medical staff in 2025.

Must be nice to get paid millions to recover from injured toes

To be fair the Saints medical staff isn't really known for being that great.

at sports-related orthopedic injuries, nope. But they excel at random stuff like heart problems and cancer.

Technically that was a hex bar lift. Do a regular deadlift at that weight and we’ll talk. jk that’s a shite ton of weight regardless.

It’s a hex bar deadlift and he’s got a bunch of mats under it. Not impressed

Yawn.... Let me know when he's running routes and catching passes every day. Until he does that he's useless.

It would appear that way however, I'm not quite ready to go all in on the narrative that a billion dollar organization is going to systemically trust and rely on incompetence from an area as critical as health of its million dollar employees.

I would imagine that the truth lies somewhere in between Dr. giving sound treatment advice and players wanting to do things their way.

If you can DL 400lbs on a regular bar you can DL that. Hell, I’m a middle aged dude and I can lift that. Not really impressive for a professional athlete.

He needs at least 4000 yards and 35 tds for the saints to even begin to break even.

If he catches a game winning TD for the Saints in a Superbowl, all monies would be well spent.

I would be in favor of the Saints making a statue of his ankle and toe with an unforgettable performance achieved on the biggest stage.
