NEW ORLEANS -- Willie Snead stole the spotlight back from Michael Thomas.
Thomas, a rookie receiver for the New Orleans Saints, has created a ton of buzz this summer with a series of terrific catches. But Snead one-upped Thomas on Friday night with the Saints’ play of the preseason -- a spectacular 17-yard touchdown catch while lying on his back in the end zone.
Snead went up high between three defenders to catch the ball, had it popped loose on his way to the ground, then reeled it back in as it fell to his chest.
