The New Orleans Saints dug into their trick play bag to score to get on the board for the first time against the Washington Commanders.
Alvin Kamara scored his first touchdown since Week 6 and his first receiving touchdown since Week 2, but it didn’t come from a quarterback. Spencer Rattler pitched the ball backwards to Cedrick Wilson Jr. and Wilson threw the touchdown. Kamara pulled in the pass with one hand to add some extra flair at the end.
Wilson has a perfect completion percentage in his career. This was his sixth pass attempt and completion of his career, in addition to his second touchdown.
The play came off the heels of Rattler’s big pass to Marquez Valdes-Scantling. That pass brought them down the field, and the trick play closed out the drive.
