There’s a clause in his contract that voids up to 35 mil of his guaranteed money if he’s suspended by the Saints or the league. They chose to just fine him and sit him, not officially suspend him. They could have officially suspended him but they did him a solid by not doing it.

Now though, he does have an “official” fine/punishment and infraction history, so it’s much easier for the team to punish harder, should MT#12 become a problem, or..., more if a problem, if you prefer.
Dude’s a beast, those complaining about a practice field scuffle are just clutching their respective pearls, imho. |

It's MT#13 right? Callaway is currently wearing #12.

The number 12 just popped into the old brain bucket, lol. Mistake, very simply, a mistake. Thank’s for the correction/head’s-up, and you’re absolutely correct; it is MT#13.

Re: Saints willing to consider Michael Thomas trade?
Tre'Quan Smith stepping up and playing like I knew he was capable of along with some other people stepping up makes it something worth asking. I doubt we do it, but we could get some amazing returns for him. Heck maybe we could get a first for him, pair it with the other first and some other stuff and win the Trevor Lawrence sweepstakes. Jets already have Sam Darnold, hey have no idea what he's capable of if he has pieces around him, so they may be willing to part ways with the pick. I'd give up a ton for Trevor Lawerence cause I think the guy is future HoFer.

The next day PFT changes their story and said that Thomas' party "may have been" inquiring about trade partners instead. Thus the Payton tweet with the backpedaling bicycle rider.
