Thigpen returned three different kicks for touchdowns in the first month of the season. He returned a kickoff and a missed field goal for touchdowns in Week 1 against Winnipeg, and he returned a punt for a touchdown in Week 2 against Calgary.Thigpen has been one of the brightest spots for the Cats in what has been a rough opening month for the Black & Gold. The team, which many thought would challenge Montreal in the East Division, has faltered, starting the season at 1-4. The Cats face a very important series of games over the course of the next month and a half.
Thigpen's award comes only a day after Arland Bruce was named the Offensive Player of the Week. Here's hoping the good week for the Tiger-Cats can continue with a win when the Cats host the Blue Bombers this Saturday.
