“Its Mike Thomas”: Fans Frustrated as Veteran WR Whose Name Beared a Striking Resemblance to 25 Yo Saints Receiver Went to Ravens Amidst Name Confusion

The Ravens are having some trouble in the offensive stance. The concerns over Lamar Jackson remain inescapable. But they are making moves to balance the odd situations. One of their recent additions is veteran wide receiver, Mike Thomas. However, the tight parallel of his name with another athlete sparked Ravens fans on Twitter.

After sustaining a massive loss, the Ravens are making moves to reinforce their position in the division. The AFC North franchise made some deductions to add wideout power to the practice squad. The Purple Rush released Zack Johnson and replaced him with a veteran receiver.

Is it Michael or Mike Thomas?

PFF’s Ari Meirov reported that veteran WR Michael Thomas has signed with the Ravens practice squad. However, it is not the one everyone is thinking about. The athlete is Mike Thomas, coming from the Cincinnati Bengals and not from the Saints.

The name’s resemblance with Saints’ Michael Thomas led to a frenzy among the NFL and Ravens fans.

This user blasted the PFF writer for writing Michael to get engagement.

Another user was wondering if it was the good Michael Thomas.

This user is wondering how the Saints WR became a free agent.

A user called out Ari Meirov over his tweet.

But this Ravens fan experienced the pain that the WR is not Michael Thomas.

Sean Koerner came up with the correction.

Another user referred to an image of how Mike Thomas would react going from Bengals to Ravens.

However, this user is wondering if Michael Thomas left the Saints.

Mike Thomas joined Baltimore’s practice squad after competing for the Bengals. The addition is the Ravens’ approach to getting offensive stability. But who are the others?

Ravens add more veteran power to the offense

After adding Mike Thomas to the practice roster, the Ravens added another offensive veteran to the lineup. But the move was surprising, as it would mark a reunion. The Purple Rush have claimed WR Sammy Watkins to bolster their dismal passing attack.

After an underwhelming season in Green Bay, the Packers waived off Sammy Watkins before the MNF game against the Rams. The Ravens claimed Watkins on Tuesday after they positioned Devin Duvernay on IR with a foot injury. It was a prompt maneuver to patch things and also have a reunion.

Will Sammy Watkins flourish in Baltimore? It is subject to witness.
