With just 13 yards needed to reach field goal range, the New Orleans Saints, specifically Jameis Winston and Marquez Callaway, took matters into their own hands and delivered a scoring blow to the Washington Football Team to close the first half.
It resulted in a 49-yard touchdown to give the Saints a 20-13 lead in the game on Saturday at Washington. It was Callaway’s second catch of the game, and by early in the third quarter, he had 2 catches for 59 yards.
Coming into Sunday, Callaway had 9 catches for 137 yards and a touchdown this season. The former Tennessee star is in his second season after he played in 11 games and made 21 catches last season for 213 yards, but did not make a touchdown catch.
HAIL MAR…QUEZ! 🙏
