Michael Thomas has not seen much action for the New Orleans Saints this season. ESPN’s Adam Schefter shared that he won’t be playing on Sunday either.

Saints’ HC Dennis Allen confirmed that Thomas will be out against the Las Vegas Raiders. Thomas is currently dealing with a foot injury.

Thomas has played in three games this season for New Orleans and has 171 yards receiving with 3 touchdowns. Jarvis Landry is also going to be out for the game.

The Saints are still very much in the race for the NFC South divisional title even after a 2-5 slow start. The current leader of the division is the Atlanta Falcons, who have a 3-4 record heading into Sunday.

Andy Dalton is still set up to start over Jameis Winston at quarterback even though Winston is now healthy.

New Orleans will be at home in Week 8. The Saints and Raiders are set to kickoff at 1 p.m. ET on CBS from Caesars Superdome.
