It kind of seems like you’re not doing anything right when you lose and you’ve got a break,” said Saints running back Alvin Kamara. Saints quarterback Jameis Winston had already shown he was going to let things roll off his back when he followed an interception with a 72-yard touchdown pass to Deonte Harris in the first quarter. There’s hope that they could get a host of players back from injuries and suspension, such as wide receivers Michael Thomas and Tre’Quan Smith, kicker Wil Lutz, left tackle Terron Armstead and center Erik McCoy. #WASvsNO | 📺: CBS pic.twitter.com/IR7AttiRpT — New Orleans Saints October 10, 2021 Winston dropped back with eight seconds left in the first half and threw it to a spot in the end zone, throwing it up high and allowing Callaway to use his impressive vertical leap to come down with it as time expired.
