We're on Day 72 in our countdown to the New Orleans Saints' 2025 season opener, which means our pick for the Saints Play of the Day is this 72-yard punt return touchdown from Darren Sproles. He started his Saints career and the team's 2011 season with a bang against the Green Bay Packers, rallying New Orleans back to life after they fell into a 21-10 hole in Week 1. You can see Sproles stun the Packers for yourself here.
It was a moment of vindication after everyone spent the offseason talking about how great a fit Sproles would be in Sean Payton's offense, catching passes from Drew Brees and running routes that linebackers hadn't seen before.
