Perhaps the most wide-open competition at New Orleans Saints training camp this summer is for return duties.
The Saints are so unsure of who will field kickoffs and punts that coach Sean Payton couldn't help but joke about the competition after practice Sunday.
"Our return game is kind of like 'The Bachelor' right now," Payton said. "We got about 12 contestants, all with roses. We don't know who our returner is going to be, and if she doesn't like any of them, we'll bring in more."
Payton exaggerated by saying there are 12 candidates, but not by much.
