Saints' Thomas collects Offensive Player of the Year Award

New Orleans Saints receiver Michael Thomas was named the NFL's Offensive Player of the Year after a record-setting campaign.

The Saints' top pass-catching threat broke the NFL's single-season record for receptions with 149 on the year. The previous record of 143 had stood since 2002.

Thomas added 1,725 receiving yards and nine touchdowns en route to being named a first-team All-Pro.

The fourth-year pro has topped 100 catches in three consecutive years. He's also surpassed 1,100 receiving yards in each of his NFL seasons.

Thomas received 19 votes for the award, beating out Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (17), and Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (12).
