Thomas entered the game as the de facto fill-in for Ja'Marr Chase and left all fantasy relevance on the field in Week 8. Creating separation has never been Thomas' game, which was on full display against a young Cleveland secondary without its top play maker. Fantasy managers that took a gamble on Thomas can safely return him to the waiver wire abyss. 

The substitute for Tee Higgins throughout most of the game, Thomas' lone 33-yard catch set up Cincinnati's first touchdown. He was well-covered by Marcus Peters on one incompletion, while the other was tipped at the line by the Ravens. While he may have been the most effective wideout named Mike Thomas in Week 5, he was no replacement for Higgins and won't be recommended in Week 6 if he plays a major role. 

The "other" Mike Thomas, this one has 28 career catches for 328 yards and one touchdown in 66 games with the Rams and Bengals. He's a mainstay on special teams for Cincinnati.

The Bengals are among the healthiest teams in the NFL headed into Week 7. Cincy's offense is fully healthy now with Joe Mixon and Tee Higgins recovered from their respective injuries.
