Description
New Orleans Saints WR Michael Thomas has suffered a setback in his recovery from the ankle injury that's kept him hampered since the opening week of 2020. Now that he will not return in 2021, the New Orleans Saints, who are also without starting QB Jameis Winston for the year, will need to figure out how best to bolster their passing game.Exploring how the passing game shifted when Trevor Siemian was in at quarterback, nearly doubling the amount of passing over the middle of the field, and attacking the short-intermediate areas while taking fewer shows downfield. Is this the future of the New Orleans Saints in 2021 without Jameis Winston and Michael Thomas?The team tried to land another receiver at the trade deadline with names like Odell Beckham Jr. and Darius Slayton both being connected to the team. Without being able to land then, the Saints will have to rely on a depleted market and the same roster they've had so far this season. But one player would help deliver a boost. But the question is: will his value be greater as a pass-catcher or a passer? Could Taysom Hill, once recovered, be what the team needs with Trevor Siemian under center? Or should Taysom Hill take the reins as a dual-threat QB?Follow Ross on Twitter @RossJacksonNOLASupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.
