Michael Thomas is proud of his Ohio State roots. The New Orleans Saints wide receiver established himself as one of the best pass-catchers in the NFL and he likes to credit his college experience.

As far as the rest of the players coming from the Buckeyes program in the NFL, Thomas isn’t surprised at their early success or longevity in the league. When Thomas spoke with the New Orleans media on a conference call on Tuesday this week, he made it clear that Ohio State was the best.

One outlet was putting together all-star rosters of NFL players by placing them with their respective schools and asked Thomas how Ohio State would fare in that exercise. He didn’t hesitate.

"Yeah, the numbers show it,” Thomas said. “Sometimes it's like you don't even have to say anything when the numbers show it. I feel like if we're all playing the numbers game, whoever has the highest numbers, it shouldn't be a debate.”

Tom Brady is typically at his best on Sundays, but now that the six-time Super Bowl champion is on the golf course squaring off against his former rival Peyton Manning and Tiger Woods alongside teammates Phil Mickelson, the quarterback has shown us that he's human after all. Over the course of the early holes of The Match: Champions for Charity, a golf tournament to help with COVID-19 relief, Brady has struggled mightily, hitting balls into the woods, struggling off the tee, you name it.

Those issues on the course have not gone unnoticed by the internet as the Brady has been trolled mercilessly on Twitter over the course of the afternoon, and Saints head coach Sean Payton decided to join in by throwing a little dig in the direction of the new Tampa Bay Buccaneer.

Alvin Kamara has emerged as an NFL star in three seasons with the New Orleans Saints, and the former Tennessee star is the lone Vol representative on a list of the best players in the League. Kamara checked in at No. 40 in Pete Prisco's Top 100 NFL Players of 2020 this week. The CBS Sports NFL analyst has the Saints star as the fourth-best running back in the NFL.

After two seasons with the Vols, Kamara was a third-round pick by New Orleans in the 2017 NFL Draft, and he quickly made his mark as a pro by winning NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year and Pepsi Rookie of the Year honors in 2017. Kamara made the Pro Bowl in each of his first two seasons in the NFL while playing an important role in one of the League's top offenses. Kamara battles injuries and endured an unusual touchdown drought in 2019.

Prisco's latest ranking has Kamara behind Panthers star Christian McCaffrey at No. 5, Ezekiel Elliott of the Cowboys at No. 17 and Giants phenom Saquon Barkley, the 2018 NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, at No. 35, and the other running backs on the list are Dalvin Cook (Vikings) at No. 44...

The New Orleans Saints players have been keeping in shape and working out amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The Saints facilities are in lockdown mode until players return for training camp in July, some of the teams' players have maintained a workout regimen and posted on social media. I thought it would be interesting to take a glimpse at the intense workouts of Saints' RB Alvin Kamara, S Malcolm Jenkins, QB Jameis Winston, RB/WR Ty Montgomery, and S Marcus Williams.

Alvin Kamara decided to workout in Florida with Dr. Sharif Tabbah DPT, CSCS of the Athletix Rehab & Recovery in the Miami, FL area. Kamara along with former Saints RB Mark Ingram are regulars at Athletix. Kamara's intense workouts have become legendary for Saints fans. Last season, Kamara had a leg injury and prevented him from replicating his great 2018 season where is scored 18 touchdowns, 81 receptions, and 1592 yards from scrimmage.
