Head coach Sean Payton announced Monday that Black and Gold legend and 25-year NFL kicker Morten Andersen will join the New Orleans Saints Ring of Honor.
The Ring of Honor idea was established in 2013 by Payton and owner Tom Benson. “I think the one thing we wanted it to be was not unique, but very tough to get in,” Payton said Monday.
Tom Benson had some kind words to say (from NewOrleansSaints.com):
“We as an organization would like to honor Morten for his great career as a Saint with everything he did for us on the field as well as being an outstanding ambassador in our community,” Benson said.
