Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas is set to undergo toe surgery, a procedure that is expected to end his season.
The conversation surrounding the end of his year has upset one teammate on his team.
Speaking to the media, Saints running back Alvin Kamara was asked about the criticism Thomas has received for his recent injury history.
“For people to be talking s-t, it irks my soul to see that,” Kamara said.
Thomas dislocated his toe in Week 3 against the Carolina Panthers and has not returned to the field. This is a huge blow for Thomas, who did not play for nearly two years because of a high ankle sprain suffered in Week 1 of the 2020 season.
Thomas called his summer 2022 return to the field “a blessing.” He seemed to prove that when he played for the first time in 21 months, scoring two touchdowns in a victory over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 1.
