What a play!
The New Orleans Saints and Tennessee Titans faced off on Sunday, and at the end of the first half, what looked like the most incredible play of the 2024 NFL preseason was prevented by another incredible play. It was quite a sight!
As the second quarter was coming to an end, Tennessee attempted a 58-yard field goal that wasn't powerful enough to clear the goalposts. With that possibility in mind, New Orleans positioned their returners to prepare to go for the run, and that's exactly what happened.

As you can see, Nacua was stopped, but it was thanks to a great performance from the fourth tight end. Thomas Odukoya.
