Sammy Knight's 91-yard interception return is the Saints Play of the Day

Sammy Knight's 91-yard interception return is the Saints Play of the Day We're going back to 1998's New Orleans Saints matchup with the Minnesota Vikings for Day 91 in our Saints Play of the Day countdown. This game had some wild moments -- we already highlighted Aaron Craver's controversial 100-yard kick return touchdown in this same series. But today, we're focusing on one of the best plays of Sammy Knight's career. The second-year safety fought to rally his team in the fourth quarter by intercepting Vikings quarterback Brad Johnson for the second time that afternoon. His first takeaway, from inside New Orleans' own end zone, prevented a sure Minnesota touchdown early on. This time, Knight took the ball away from deep in Saints territory and ran 91 yards to score a touchdown of his own. He initially bobbled the catch before securing it and taking off with Cris Carter in tight pursuit. The future Hall of Famer couldn't bring Knight down in the open field, though, and Knight pulled off the big play. You can see it all for yourself here. Doug Brien kicked the tying extra point, giving the team a chance. They just couldn't seal the deal. Facing a 31-24 deficit on their final possession, the Saints offense initially picked up 13 yards on a Billy Joe Tolliver pass, then Craver ran for 7 more. But that's where their luck ran out. Tolliver's next pass fell incomplete. He gained just 2 yards on the next completion, then ran for a yard on fourth-and-short. A 9-yard completion was wiped out by a 10-yard penalty on the next play, and then Tolliver took three sacks on second, third, and fourth down, losing 30 yards. Still, the Saints never would've had a chance in this one if not for Knight. His efforts deserve to be remembered.

Countdown to Kickoff: Vernon Broughton is the Saints Player of Day 91

Countdown to Kickoff: Vernon Broughton is the Saints Player of Day 91 Broughton is expected to upgrade the interior defense for New Orleans The New Orleans Saints start their 2025 regular season 91 days from today against the Arizona Cardinals. Currently wearing No. 91 for the Saints is one of several newcomers to the team, rookie defensive lineman Vernon Broughton. As our Saints Player of the Day, it's time to take a closer look at the rookie defender. Name (age): Vernon Broughton II (23) Vernon Broughton II (23) Hometown: Houston, Texas Houston, Texas Position: Defensive tackle Defensive tackle Height, weight: 6-foot-5, 311 pounds 6-foot-5, 311 pounds College: Texas Longhorns Texas Longhorns Relative Athletic Score: N/A N/A Drafted: Round 3, 71st overall in 2025 (New Orleans Saints) Round 3, 71st overall in 2025 (New Orleans Saints) NFL experience: Rookie Rookie 2025 salary cap hit: $1,206,872 A four-star recruit out of Cypress Ridge High School in Texas, Broughton elected to stay in-state over recruiting pitches from other national powers. After playing in just two games in 2020 as a freshman, he was a regular part of the defensive line rotation until becoming a starter last season. In his last four years with the Longhorns, Broughton totaled 6.5 sacks and 13 tackles for loss among his 70 total stops. New Orleans targeted Broughton with their first of two choices in Round 3, the seventh pick in the round. He was the fifth defensive tackle taken off the board in Day 2. Outside of Bryan Bresee, a first round pick in 2023, Broughton is the highest drafted interior defender by the Saints since Sheldon Rankins in 2016. Broughton has an explosive first step off the snap and good athleticism for his size. He'll need to get stronger and show more consistency against the run, but plays with good leverage against double-teams and shows good lateral movement down the line of scrimmage. Broughton's frame and athleticism gives him some versatility as both an interior lineman or a big end in 3-man fronts. New Orleans ranked 30th in overall defense and a putrid 31st against the run and yards per rush. It's clear that the Saints and new defensive coordinator Brandon Staley wanted to get more skilled up front. They picked Vernon Broughton midway through Day 2 of this year's draft to hopefully help them do exactly that.

92 days till the Arizona Cardinals' 2025 season opener: Who has worn No. 92?

92 days till the Arizona Cardinals' 2025 season opener: Who has worn No. 92? With 92 days till the Cardinals open the season against the Saints, we look at the players who have worn No. 92. We are counting down to the start of the 2025 regular season for the Arizona Cardinals and are now less than 14 weeks away. They will open the season on the road against the New Orleans Saints on Sept. 7. That is 92 days away. As we count down the remaining days of the offseason, let's look at who has worn that number uniform over the years for the Cardinals. Who has worn No. 92? Cardinals players to wear No. 92 No. 92 currently belongs to defensive lineman Bilal Nichols, acquired in free agency a year ago but only played in six games before a neck injury ended his season. DL Bilal Nichols (2024-?) DL Kevin Strong (2023) DL Antwaun Woods (2022) DL Zach Kerr (2019, 2021) DL Rashard Lawrence (2020) LB Dennis Gardeck (2018) DL Frostee Rucker (2015-2017) DL Dan Williams (2010-2014) DL Bertrand Berry (2004-2009) DL Barron Tanner (2000-2003) DL Angel Rubio (1999) DL Eric England (1994-1996) DL Dexter Manley (1990) Berry is probably the best No. 92. He was an impactful pass rusher who got to be part of the Super Bowl team in 2008. Williams was solid but unspectacular while Rucker was solid.
