The Saints capitalized on mistakes by Seattle, which is without injured quarterback Russell Wilson. Replacement Geno Smith was sacked five times.
Saints quarterback Jameis Winston threw for 222 yards and a touchdown and had 43 yards rushing.
Jets' Wilson Has Sprained Ligament
New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh confirmed Monday that rookie quarterback Zach Wilson has a sprained posterior cruciate ligament in his knee and will be out two to four weeks, sharing the news after Wilson had an MRI.
Wilson was injured in Sunday’s 54-13 loss to the New England Patriots. To help fill in for Wilson, the Jets traded for veteran Joe Flacco from Philadelphia, giving the Eagles a sixth-round draft pick. Flacco started four games for the Jets last season.
Packers' Adams Put On Reserve/Covid-19
The Green Bay Packers said Monday that receiver Davante Adams had been put on the reserve/Covid-19 list, which is for players who’ve either tested positive or had close contact with someone who did.
The team also said defense coordinator Joe Barry tested positive.
Meanwhile, Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy said Monday that he’d tested positive for Covid. Nagy, who is vaccinated, said he feels “pretty good.”
What Fan Got For Tom Brady Football
We now know what the Tampa Bay Buccaneers fan who gave back the ball Tom Brady threw for his 600th career touchdown pass on Sunday got in return -- and it’s pretty good.
ESPN reported Byron Kennedy will get: two jerseys signed by Brady; a helmet; a jersey autographed by Mike Evans -- who caught the pass and gave Kennedy the ball, not realizing it was Brady’s 600th; Evans’ game-worn cleats; season tickets for the rest of 2021 and for 2022; and a $1,000 credit for the team store.
