Falcons LB's cleats pay respect to Katrina anniversary
Monday night's affair between the Saints and the Falcons at the Superdome marks the 10th anniversary of the Saints' return to New Orleans following the devastating effects from Hurricane Katrina on the city.
One Falcons player, linebacker Deion Jones, is a New Orleans native and is paying respect to tonight's anniversary with his footwear. The symbols on his cleats reflect how search and rescue teams marked area houses following the disaster in 2005.
Meaning:
Top: Denotes the date
Bot: Gives the # of victims found dead
Left: Identifies the rescue team
Right: Current hazards in the home
