Saints have a surprising player of the game in preseason finale

We have a surprising player of the game as the the New Orleans Saints close their preseason slate with a loss to the Denver Broncos. Blake Grupe closed his strong offseason with a flawless performance in the New Orleans Saints preseason finale.

Grupe received two of the four votes from our analysts. The kicker had three field goal attempts and nailed all three. Grupe was having a strong training camp, and this was the exclamation point on months of consistency.

Grupe winning this distinction means we've had a defensive player, offensive player and a specialist win this title during the preseason.
