The Post could not independently acquire a copy of the complaint, but TMZ claimed the NFL star is suing for breach of lease and asking for $1 million in damages. Even though he only paid $180,000 (for the two months and the security deposit), he said the damage to his professional life was more severe, as he attempted to recover from a September 2020 ankle injury, according to the outlet.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><figcaption>During the 28-year-old\u2019s February and March stay, the six-bedroom, seven-and-a-half-bathroom home had malfunctions relating to the pool, garage doors and kitchen appliances, according to the lawsuit as reported by TMZ.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Getty Images<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Thomas is expected to miss the start of the season after undergoing surgery on his ankle ligaments in June, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nfl.com\/news\/saints-wr-michael-thomas-expected-to-miss-start-of-2021-season\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">according to the NFL<\/a>.
