Saints' Michael Thomas (knee) returns to practice on Thursday

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas was present at Thursday's practice after missing Wednesday's session with a knee ailment.

What It Means:

Earlier today, head coach Sean Payton shot down a question of whether or not Thomas' knee injury was significant or a long-term concern. This basically confirms that while standing as an encouraging sign for Thomas' Week 8 availability. There's no word yet on whether he was limited, but the fact that he was present at the media portion could lead to him being a full participant. If Thomas is at or near 100% come Sunday, Drew Brees would get a little more of a confidence boost against the Chicago Bears.

Thomas' $7,500 price tag is 11th among all wideouts, while his projected 13 FanDuel points fall in the top 8 at his position this week.
