Dammit Ken Burroughs, just couldn't think of the name I was actually thinking Billy White Shoes Johnson as well, I knew I was in the ballpark
Here is one for y'all... Which one of my family members was cut from the Saints during the 87 training camp only to sign with the Broncos and play in the Super Bowl after he graduated from LSU?
What Saints player holds the NFL record for most receptions in his first two seasons? A New Orleans Saint also holds the 2nd most receptions in his first two seasons. Who is it?
OK, I cheated, but only a little since I don't know you. Based on Google-ing the Broncos '87 roster (which had 3 Tigers), I'll go with Tim Joiner.
Try this one.....everyone's familiar with Jim Marshall's infamous wrong-way run back in the '60s. A teammate jarred the ball loose, and the Vikings DE scooped it up and ran about 70 yard the wrong way and threw the ball into the stands, thinking he had scored a touchdown. Now the question....what later New Orleans Saint fumbled the ball? Hint: although he was a WR at the time of the fumble, he played QB for the Saints.
CORRECT. When the Saints had the training camp up in Hammond I got to go hang with him..it was cool as hell, got to put on his sholder pads and helmet..meet other players...it was AWSOME!!!
Here is a good one. Which Saint was called the least likely hero of them all by Jim Henderson? As a follow up, what action made that player a hero?
