Thomas of the Saints is going to Miss a lot of time, at least the start of the season. Now, this from Ian Rapoport, it is recommended that he gets four months of rest. So if you do the math on that, and I'm not a math guy, really, that would put a Michael Thomas potential return toward the end of November. That is a long time for the New Orleans Saints to be without their star wide receiver again. He had surgery today on his ankle.
