Doing ->save to multiple relations

I am using Laravel 5.5.13.

I have a model called Thumb. This thumb is related to two things in a many-to-one relationship: Player and Comment.

I currently do things like this:

public function store(Request $request, Entity $entity, Player $player)
{
    $thumb = new Thumb($request->all());
    $thumb->player_id = $player->id;
    $entity->thumbs()->save($thumb);
    return response()->json($thumb, 201);
}

We see how I have to set $thumb->player_id AND I don't have to set the entity_id because I am doing $entity->thumbs()->save

Is there a way to do $entityAndPlayer->thumbs()->save? Or is the way I did it above the recommend way?
