Fantasy Impact:

In the last year of his rookie contract, Thomas is seeking a new deal to become the highest-paid receiver in the league. According to previous reports, he is looking for $22 million per year. He and the team have not reached an agreement, and Thomas will not attend training camp in the meantime. He has led the Saints in receptions in each of his first three seasons, snagging a league-high 125 balls in 2018-19. A new deal is likely to get done sooner than later, but this story is one to follow closely, especially since Thomas is going within the first two rounds of fantasy drafts this year.
