Jameis Winston hit Thomas on the 9-yard pass to score. The Saints trailed by 16 at the beginning of the fourth quarter but scored two touchdowns to bring it within 3.
With less than a minute left, the Saints drove down the field and managed a field goal to take the lead with 30 seconds to play.
Thomas has picked up 57 yards in the game with the pair of touchdowns. After missing the entire 2021 season with an injury, it is good to see Thomas come back with a clutch performance.
