If he thinks he's bigger than the organization, please get rid of him. I hate that crap.

“After he got paid”. He ain’t been paid..., yet, lol.

Thomas needs to be careful...

"Per the language of the contract, a copy of which PFT has obtained, the suspension makes those guarantees “null and void.” That would leave Thomas without the full financial security that comes from his long-term contract, and it would allow the Saints to easily move on from him after either of the next two seasons if his performance dips, if he can’t stay healthy, or if they simply decide they’ve had enough."

They technically didn't suspend him, but if he continues to act out, there is a easy avenue for the Saints to get out of his deal.

	The Saints are 0-42 when running the ball less than 15 times in a game.
