Mon, 28 Nov 2011 21:33:48 -0800 New Orleans Saints RB Pierre Thomas had eight carries for 63 yards and a touchdown in Week 12 against the New York Giants Monday, Nov. 18, and he added three catches for 47 yards.

Overall, Ingram has 53 carries to just 27 for Thomas.
Thu, 22 Sep 2011 00:25:56 -0700 The New Orleans Saints have three talented running backs in Mark Ingram, Pierre Thomas and Darren Sproles, and head coach Sean Payton said the integration of the three on the field is a "work in progress." Payton said the coaching staff thinks a lot about the way the three backs will be utilized during games.
Wed, 21 Sep 2011 09:43:33 -0700 New Orleans Saints RP Pierre Thomas looks healthy this year after putting up just 3.2 yards per carry a year ago. After two games this year, Thomas has 5.1 yards per carry, while RB Mark Ingram is at 3.3 yards per tote.

Fri, 19 Aug 2011 10:52:13 -0700 New Orleans Saints RBs Mark Ingram and Pierre Thomas have alternated reps during training camp with the first-string offense. Both players have had their moments and either Ingram or Thomas will end up as the team's primary ball carrier this season. However, the running back spot for head coach Sean Payton's offense is similar to the receiver position. It does not matter which player starts, the reps at the end will likely be similar between the two backs.
Fri, 29 Jul 2011 10:57:31 -0700 New Orleans Saints RB Pierre Thomas (ankle) said he is about 85 percent healthy as he makes his return from offseason ankle surgery. He fully participated in the team's first training camp practice, but fumbled twice and wasn't happy with himself. Thomas said he was rusty because he spent most of the offseason rehabbing and not doing football activities. The surgery was done to tighten up some loose ligaments and joints, and he did not require any screws being inserted into his ankle.
Tue, 21 Jun 2011 07:34:54 -0700 Two New Orleans Saints coaches insisted that, despite the selection of RB Mark Ingram in the first round of the NFL Draft, the team is not shopping RB Pierre Thomas. "He's here," said one coach when asked about some reports that Thomas might now be expendable. "We've seen firsthand that you can't have enough (backs)."
Wed, 15 Jun 2011 10:49:11 -0700 The New Orleans Saints may consider trading RB Pierre Thomas this offseason because the team has a number of running backs on the roster and Thomas may have some trade value.
Tue, 17 May 2011 23:41:06 -0700 New Orleans Saints RB Pierre Thomas (ankle) might not be back at full strength when training camp starts, although he shed his walking boot in mid-April and is making progress in his recovery from major offseason ankle surgery.
Sat, 30 Apr 2011 06:39:25 -0700 The New Orleans Saints insist they are not planning to run RB Reggie Bush out of town now that they have selected RB Mark Ingram in the NFL Draft. However, Bush is concerned that he will become even more minimized in a backfield that is suddenly overstocked with RBs Ingram, Pierre Thomas and Chris Ivory. Although he is under contract with the Saints for one more year at $11.8 million, the Saints probably won't bring Bush back at that price tag. So he will either need to agree to a new contract with the Saints, or they will allow him to leave and become a free agent.
Fri, 29 Apr 2011 10:46:58 -0700 Continuing a previous storyline, New Orleans Saints RB Reggie Bush, via Twitter, congratulated rookie RB Mark Ingram on being selected by the Saints and added Ingram "will be a great addition to the Saints backfield just as he was in Alabama." This followed Bush's tweet saying: "It's been fun New Orleans." It sounded like Bush thought the addition of Ingram to the Saints will push him out, which may be true. Bush, however, may have overreacted.
Wed, 13 Apr 2011 12:59:17 -0700 New Orleans Saints RB Pierre Thomas (ankle) said on his Twitter page that he is no longer wearing a protective boot on his surgically repaired ankle, reports Mike Triplett, of the New Orleans Times-Picayune.

Sun, 02 Jan 2011 09:01:16 -0800 New Orleans Saints WR Marques Colston (knee), RB Pierre Thomas (ankle) and TE Jeremy Shockey (groin) are among the team's inactives in Week 17 versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to CBSSports.com. Fantasy Tip: The Saints appear not to be taking any chances this week, understandably. The absence of Colston means that Lance Moore, Robert Meachem and even Devery Henderson are in line for increased looks. The Saints spread it around a lot, though. The return of Chris Ivory (hamstring) probably made the decision to rest Thomas an easy one. Ivory gets an upgrade in Week 17 outlook with this news; he could serve as an RB2 or a flex play against Tampa's suspect run D. With neither Shockey nor David Thomas (knee) available, Jimmy Graham is also pretty intriguing start as a fantasy tight end, too.
Sun, 02 Jan 2011 08:54:05 -0800 The New Orleans Saints have declared LB Anthony Waters, DL Anthony Hargrove, TE David Thomas, TE Jeremy Shockey, LB Kawika Mitchell, WR Marques Colston, RB Pierre Thomas, FS Usama Young inactive for Week 17.

Fri, 17 Dec 2010 15:21:37 -0800 New Orleans Saints RB Chris Ivory (hamstring) did not practice Friday, Dec. 17, and is questionable for Week 15. Ivory will be a game-time decision, and RB Pierre Thomas could see the majority of the snaps.
Wed, 15 Dec 2010 22:00:35 -0800 New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton said Wednesday, Dec. 15, that WR Robert Meachem and RB Pierre Thomas likely will be first in line to return kicks in Week 15 against the Baltimore Ravens, reports Mike Triplett, of the New Orleans Times-Picayune. A replacement is needed for WR Courtney Roby (concussion), who was carted off in Week 14 against the St. Louis Rams and not expected to play on Sunday.

Mon, 13 Dec 2010 09:41:34 -0800 New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton said RBs Pierre Thomas and Julius Jones as well as WRs Robert Meachem and Devery Henderson could be options as kick returner in Week 15 if WR Courtney Roby (neck) is not able to play, reports Jeff Duncan, of the New Orleans Times-Picayune.

Nine of his carries came during the second half, as the Saints were trying to eat up the clock in their win over the St. Louis Rams. "I see I still have a lot of work to do. I'm not there yet, but the ankle wasn't giving me any problems. I felt great out there," Thomas added. He also noted his conditioning was just fair and he felt winded after consecutive carries.
