Leave it to a former New Orleans Saints player to have the first key play against the Minnesota Vikings.
Patrick Robinson, a first-round drafted cornerback by the Saints in 2010, returned an interception 50 yards for a touchdown Sunday that drew the Philadelphia Eagles to a 7-7 tie in the NFC championship game.
Hit as he threw, Vikings quarterback Case Keenum lofted a floater far down the right sideline for Robinson to catch. He cut across the field and scored just inside the right pylon.
Robinson, 30, played five seasons with the Saints, and is with his third different team in the last three seasons.
