The Saints offense continues to struggle, but Michael Thomas has been silently having a good year after three injury-plagued seasons.
The NFL Comeback Player of the Year is an award that has been handed out since 1998 . A New Orleans Saints player has won the honor just once. After missing the 1999 campaign with a knee injury, Saints Pro Bowl DE Joe Johnson rebounded with another Pro Bowl campaign in 2000 to take the award.
Over a four-year stretch from 2016 to 2019, Thomas averaged 116 catches for yards 1,378 yards and had 32 touchdowns. His 1,745 yards in 2019 led the NFL, broke his own franchise record , and tied him with Marques Colston for the most consecutive 1,000-yard seasons in franchise history. A series of foot and ankle injuries caused Thomas to miss 40 of 50 regular season games between 2020 and 2022. Even when he did play, he was often physically hampered. It's still worth noting that a limited Michael Thomas still averaged nearly six catches and 61 yards in those 10 contests.
We have yet to see one of Thomas' signature dominant games--he has surpassed 60 yards just twice this year. This is also a product of an inept offense, the fact that he's been thrown to little in the second half of several games, and that the Saints offense has not targeted the middle of the field, where Thomas excels best.
