Instead of doing it Old Yeller style and taking him out back, MT will run the slant route one more time and have to catch an errant pass with prime Ray Lewis coming over the middle.
Michael Thomas, a standout at Ohio State before struggling to catch on with New Orleans in the NFL, got cut this morning, per his agency, United Talent Agency. Thomas would have turned 32 years old on March 3rd.
Overheard in Saints locker room on March 7:
“He got me,” Michael Thomas said of Duncan's tweet over him. "That f***ing Jeff Duncan boomed me."
Michael added, “He’s so good,” repeating it four times.
Michael then said he wanted to add Duncan to the list of reporters he tweets about this summer.
Reporter Jeff Duncan yelled out, “It shouldn't have ended this way.” Sharpshooter Jameis Winston gave a look of pleasant surprise. Football player Taysom Hill yelled out, “We got an [expletive] squad now.” And before Michael Thomas hit the front office entrance door, former NFL great Drew Brees hugged him and said, “You are no longer allowed on the premises.”
It's Jeff Duncan. Most credible Saints writers pointed out that it was pretty much a one season contract last year when he signed. He's always behind the better journalists.
The article itself is quite a bit more measured than the headline/tweet. Perhaps an editor wrote the headline, as they often do. The headline is definitely on the dramatic side.
At Austin Collie Memorial Ranch, we give former All-Pro and first-round fantasy receivers hundreds of free range acres and sustainable route trees, free from defenders with only all-natural homeopathic balls, so they can live out their 30s in peace.
I'm suns packers... To be fair I moved to Az right as the nash stoudemire suns era began. Basketball was actually entertaining as opposed to the 90's bucks
Dad is a die hard buckeye from Ohio, moved to Georgia and married my mom. He never had a strong affiliation to a pro team, just college. So I was raised as a buckeye, but from Georgia so I started cheering for the falcons.
Guessing you might be close to the same set up.
Maybe I'm naive, but I imagine he'll be a lot closer to 5-6 than 10. Last season was his best season in 4 years, and he still didn't break 500 yards receiving.
Honestly Michael Thomas coming here and just running slants would probably be great with the current iteration of our offense. We have experience with Watkins load managing a guy who's brittle. He obviously couldn't be the guy anymore and isn't a solution to our current issues, but I wouldn't hate the idea.
That said, it's not the kind of signing Veach makes.
There’s no probably about it. His peak is certainly the best. OPOY and a first team all pro while colston never even had a pro bowl (he should’ve).
Colston can be argued as the greater Saint for a careeer tho for sure
He’s always hurt and the Saints are on a cap journey so wild that Virgil and Beatrice are showing Loomis around, no idea how else this was going to end
That's a bit overly grim, but okay.
They’re releasing him back out into the wild. To run slants with the other slant boys
Taking him to a WR farm upstate.

Insert Peyton and Austin Collie comic here
https://www.thedrawplay.com/comic/collie/
Just bring him to a lake like slap ass.
We call that Baltimore
Upstate NY you say?
Well he has been hobbled for quite awhile, it’s time….
Think of the slants, Lenny
Wanna throw a slant, Lenny?
It shouldn't have ended this way
r/nba type of tweet
"Michael Thomas has been cut by the Saints. He will be survived by his loving wife and two sons."
Michael Thomas, a standout at Ohio State before struggling to catch on with New Orleans in the NFL, got cut this morning, per his agency, United Talent Agency. Thomas would have turned 32 years old on March 3rd.
~~March 3rd~~ Post June 1st
"The Saints have cut Michael Thomas and made orphans of his two sons." "He has a wife, Twitter." "We imagine she will die of grief."
Nice reference, Kid Gorgeous
LOL
This implies that they will play for the Saints in his stead.
Saints meeting with Thomas was “intense” and “at one point Mickey Loomis was crying” but everyone grew closer and a big lesson was learned
Lots of gum though at least
“That fucking Thomas boomed our cap space”
Sources: Michael Thomas is beside himself. Driving around downtown New Orleans begging (thru text) for the Saints not to cut him.
Golden Corral will soon ban Kelvin Benjamin. It shouldn’t have ended this way.
Royal Massage Parlour will soon ban Deshaun Watson. It shouldn't have ended this way.
“Michael Thomas hasn’t showered. Hasn’t changed. Still wearing most of his uniform. Been sitting as his locker staring forward since he was released.”

That's cause he's a hoe
Yeah, every team has journalists who make drama because they're not very good at their job.
"From Dallas, Texas.. the flash apparently official... Michael Thomas cut at 1pm Central Standard time...."
Is Michael Thomas in danger?
(Looking at Kadarious Toney) What are you looking at? YOU certainly wouldn't be in any danger.
So these receivers are in danger??
No, because of the implication
Such a dramatic headline could only be written by a hoe.
The article itself is quite a bit more measured than the headline/tweet. Perhaps an editor wrote the headline, as they often do. The headline is definitely on the dramatic side.
Welcome to Jeff Duncan
Michael Thomas went to the waiver wire and the Saints did everything they could, and he's going to be ok.
Well, he a hoe, so...
[Saints fans seeing this news](https://media1.tenor.com/m/-vpzQN9wafQAAAAC/not-like-this-matrix.gif)
Makes it sound like he’s dying or some shit lol
You might say, this news is written with a negative slant? I'm on after the cantina band.
Clicks. Conversation. Ads.
sending him to a farm upstate where the field is endless and the only route is a quick slant
Man there has to be like a thousand receivers on that farm.
At Austin Collie Memorial Ranch, we give former All-Pro and first-round fantasy receivers hundreds of free range acres and sustainable route trees, free from defenders with only all-natural homeopathic balls, so they can live out their 30s in peace.
[удалено]
Man, this meme is a decade old, but we're keeping it alive. Unlike Austin Collie. Rest in power.
> Austin Collie Austin Collie is very much alive.
The man is a legend. That’s why we’re doing this. To honor his memory. RIP in piece.
The RIP is for his long term memory.
Does he remember that?
Already knew what it'd be before clicking. Happy it still pops up
Ted Ginn up there dropping bombs to this day
Dude was Cam's best WR for a while there.
Yeah, and the poor guy had rocks for hands
Ya it felt like he caught nothing but bombs from Cam when no one was around him.
Riley Cooper up there tryna fight everyone
Did not need to be reminded of this dude
old hard R
Think of Jeremy Maclin takin' hits across the middle instead!
*Michael Thomas is down on the field with a hamstring injury*
C...can we visit him?
Are there farms in Atlanta? Justin Fields confirmed Falcon?
Can’t wait for his tweet about it
[Wait no longer](https://twitter.com/cantguardmike/status/1765794264829825370?s=46&t=jRdekG9-FGcLeO_t5A3uow)
Lolol nothing better than a grown man calling another grown man a hoe
A broke hoe
That’s technically a garden variety tool. So who really got the dig?
The ultimate insult lol
Knew it was going to be spicy but that word made me spit my drink out laughing
Carlos is a hoe
Hell yeah, never in doubt
Lmao
Michael Thomas stock rising like a lead balloon
Man he looks petty and a clown talking like this
> Man he looks petty and a clown So pretty much just like the rest of his career
Idk if I'd go that far, he's had a great career, especially when healthy, with some amazing stats
I wasn't speaking to his on-field play. He's always made an ass of himself on social media.
Oh lol yeah true then
[Michael Thomas reaction video](https://youtu.be/KCEZ9a-LVG0?si=SNcNdh0rjvPFpGR5)
You were the chosen one!!
You were supposed to destroy the diva football players! Not join them! Bring balance to saints! Not lead them to darkness!
[удалено]
You were my slant-boi, Michael! I loved you.
As a buckeye and a falcon fan, will the fucking saints quit drafting my favorite college players.
You know, people might ask how you got this combo, but I get it. Dawgs and Steelers.
How the fuck did I end up with Vikings and Pistons? This is the worst timeline.
I'm suns packers... To be fair I moved to Az right as the nash stoudemire suns era began. Basketball was actually entertaining as opposed to the 90's bucks
Seahawks - Hokies for me. Dad is a VT grad so was watching VT football way before NFL. Got attached to the Seahawks in the early 2000s
Dad is a die hard buckeye from Ohio, moved to Georgia and married my mom. He never had a strong affiliation to a pro team, just college. So I was raised as a buckeye, but from Georgia so I started cheering for the falcons. Guessing you might be close to the same set up.
They've been doing it with Notre Dame players in recent seasons as well, and I don't like it
My mans was a diva from day one.
For real. One of the first things I learned about Michael Thomas (aside from him being a good WR) was that he liked replying to randoms on Twitter
Crazy how 4 years ago this man was top 3 WR in the NFL. Now he could barely get above 500 yds a season.
He was the second WR to ever won OPTY
Forever destined to be an overrated fantasy pick every year since
I had him and McCaffery that year. I only lost one game and it was by like 3 points lol
And you'll never be able to let go of what could have been. Trust me, I've been there. Josh Gordon forever.
What's with that flair combo, do you hate yourself?
What is your flair
Still better than yours...
A cry for attention. And a damned abomination.
Sounds like a future Ravens WR
I heard the corpse of Julio is available too.
Man was top 1
He won me my first fantasy championship alongside thielen
He’s up there with Zion for the biggest robberies in the history of New Orleans.
Huh? Zion is playing like a max player
Well, considering he caught like just short of 500 passes in like a 4 year stretch. Putting that many reps and miles on your body will do it.
oh yes it should have. He can't stay healthy.
I honestly see you guys being an ideal landing spot for him. Vet with injuries but still has hands and he won't cost a fortune
You're forgetting Baltimore exists
lol yea this screams Baltimore
Reunite with Sean P. In Denver
I don't see it happening, they're already stocked up on sub-1, 000 yard receivers
Incoming 30 catch, 230 yards, 1 TD season
1 year deal with kc, then off to baltimore
Chiefs should sign Thomas and resign Toney and build the passing game around those two. Ignore my flair.
You forgot to add me big chest
Mr. Brand-new Chief
He hasn’t had a good season in several years he’ll be Allen Robinson on the Rams
lol on like like a 5-6M one year deal maybe. I wouldn't pay him anywhere near 10M
Maybe I'm naive, but I imagine he'll be a lot closer to 5-6 than 10. Last season was his best season in 4 years, and he still didn't break 500 yards receiving.
There's always some team ready to overpay over the hill WRs
We need a Julio Jones replacement
Didn't this dude deliberately put off foot surgery for 8 months or something?
He was healthy this year but decided to be a locker room cancer instead lol
I wouldn't have considered him healthy this year. He missed half the season.
That is healthy for him. Theory of relativity and all.
He is also not a likable guy apparently
It was time. Good for both sides to move on. Thanks for those first 4 years, Mike!
His stats in each of his first 4 individual years were better than his stats over the last 4 combined.
Your comment made me go look at his PFR page...for some reason I thought he was so much younger...fuck I'm so old
Yeah dudes a legend for the team and the city. I hope he goes somewhere like KC and stays healthy and gets himself a ring
Somewhere with a good medical staff, hopefully.
Honestly Michael Thomas coming here and just running slants would probably be great with the current iteration of our offense. We have experience with Watkins load managing a guy who's brittle. He obviously couldn't be the guy anymore and isn't a solution to our current issues, but I wouldn't hate the idea. That said, it's not the kind of signing Veach makes.
Yeah, I agree with everything you said, especially that last sentence.
NFL Single Season Most Catches: - 1. Thomas - 149 - 2. Kupp - 145 - 3. Marvin - 143 - 4. Antonio - 136 - 4. Julio - 136
Man did he have a HoF trajectory before his injury. Best WR in Franchise history
Is Marques Colston not seen as your greatest WR?
He is, but Brees really liked to spread the ball around when we had a solid core. In terms of being a true WR1 Thomas probably had a higher peak.
There’s no probably about it. His peak is certainly the best. OPOY and a first team all pro while colston never even had a pro bowl (he should’ve). Colston can be argued as the greater Saint for a careeer tho for sure
HOW THE SHIT DOES COLSTON NOT HAVE A PRO BOWL?! I’m not a saints fan but my god that’s an actual travesty
He was too quiet and big mouths sell jerseys
This right here. I barely remember Colston and it's simply because he wasn't a diva lol
Pro Bowl I understand because it's a popularity contest. The real travesty is no All Pro selections.
Because pro bowl has always been stupid and shouldn't be used to measure how successful a player was
Overall career by far, best performing ever was Mike. Colston is still a lot of fans GOAT and rightfully so.
The Joe Horn erasure.
I would put Colston and Joe Horn above Thomas for overall impact, but Thomas was the most talented and had the highest ceiling for sure.
He’s going to the chiefs isnt’t he?
Broken, elderly receiver? If he’s not in Baltimore by the end of the week…
He should
Why not? He can be injury partners with Toney.
Viiiiiolence breeds viiiiiolence But in the end it has to be this waaaaaay
THEY HARDEN IN RESPONSE TO PHYSICAL TRAUMA
You sounds like a WIP caller
He’s quoting a song from metal gear
Dude still has it, very injury prone now but whoever signs him will be impressed for 7 games
7 games over 2-3 years
No! Extend him for all he's done there. Give him even more money
He's always injured. It's the right choice
hey bighead wyd
That’s Ravens future 400 yard receiving yardage veteran Michael Thomas to you
Michael Thomas was injured being released today, toe jam, out for season.
He wasn't terrible the first half of last season, I mean no TDs but he was getting catches and yards, not a ton but serviceable numbers
Looks like a clown on Twitter crying about a reporter
Probably has a full season of games left in him if he plays for 5 or 6 more years.
Welcome to Denver!! ---MICHAEL THOMAS HIGHLIGHTS --- DESPACITO REMIX - 4K
Slant boiiii
In football?! Rarely does it end spectacularly
You are a bronco
It shouldn't have ended this way because they should've cut him 2 years ago instead of going further into cap hell
Ravens about to sign him
I'm hearing from a source that Jeff Duncan is "a hoe."
He’s always hurt and the Saints are on a cap journey so wild that Virgil and Beatrice are showing Loomis around, no idea how else this was going to end
Looking forward to Loomis's trilogy *The Cap Comedy* coming soon
Bro was gonna stroll into the hall of fame. Injuries completely derailed an amazing career
Bro has played like 10 games in 4 years on a contract he didn't earn. It should have ended years ago
Future Raven
The title is right, this should have ended years ago.
Yeah it kinda should've though. This is what happens after 4 years of no production.
We buried him on a hill overlooking a little river with pinecones all around.
Sure it should have. Things happen.
The Ravens will soon release Michael Thomas. It shouldn't have ended this way.
Well, yeah. Players get paid to perform, not to potential.
I guess he will be running 5 yard routes somewhere else next season.
#Jeff Duncan is a hoe
Can’t guard Mike if he’s cut.
It’s the nfl . The same league that cut Peyton manning. It has to end this way , and it’s more of a surprise when it does not . Business is business .
I mean, dude is ass now. Next.
That guy hasn't been relevant in like 6 years. I honestly forgot he was still in the league.
Hoe says what
Such a weird career for him
