Highlights from Saints' open practice at Yulman Stadium
It took a while but the New Orleans Saints finally practiced in front of their home fans. The black and gold returned to New Orleans after holding training camp in Southern California for the last month, and they kicked off festivities with an open practice at Tulane's Yulman Stadium on Tuesday night.
And we've got the highlights. Key players who have battled injury like tight end Juwan Johnson, running back Alvin Kamara, and cornerback Paulson Adebo returned to work, as did rookie left tackle Taliese Fuaga. And rookie kicker Charlie Smyth wowed the crowd with a 65-yard field goal that would've been good from even longer. Here's what you missed:
