FILE - New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas, center, sits on the bench with teammates during the second half of an NFL preseason football game against the Baltimore Ravens, Saturday, Aug. 14, 2021, in Baltimore. Thomas says he won't be able to play this season because of complications related to his recovery from offseason ankle surgery. Saints coach Sean Payton said Thomas will need an additional procedure, but he also credited Thomas' work ethic during his rehabilitation and said the setback had nothing to do with the receiver's approach to his recovery. Thomas posted comments about his setback on social media Wednesday, Nov. 3. (AP Photo/Gail Burton, File)
