Saints not taking Packers backup quarterback Brett Hundley lightly

Related Topics: Green Bay Packers, Brett Hundley

The New Orleans Saints look to extend a current three-game winning streak in Week Seven and dodged a bullet by facing a Green Bay Packers team without quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

But the Saints won't take Sunday's matchup lightly even as the Packers turn to Brett Hundley, who will make his first career start in place of Rodgers.

New Orleans has a challenge in scouting Hundley in live NFL action when considering the lack of regular-season game tape.

Saints coach Sean Payton, however, said Wednesday in teleconference that he is familiar with Hundley from evaluating the signal caller leading to the 2015 NFL Draft and preseason games.
