Michael Thomas and the Saints have reached an agreement on a five-year/$100 million extension to make him the highest-paid receiver in NFL history. (Ian Rapoport on Twitter )
Fantasy Impact:
In addition to being the highest-paid receiver, Thomas also becomes the first non-QB offensive player to ink a $100 million deal. Thomas’ 321 receptions rank first in the NFL since he entered the league in 2016, and he led all receivers with 125 receptions and an 85.0 percent catch rate just a year ago. He’ll likely report to training camp immediately and end his holdout. Thomas is a clear top-five wide receiver in fantasy this season.
