Saints RB Alvin Kamara lauds Bubba Wallace’s courage after NASCAR’s challenging week

Bubba Wallace wore a mask in the colors of the American flag, his hand over his heart as he stood for the national anthem.

In troubled and unprecedented times, a bit of normalcy returned to sports Sunday. Fans — only 1,000 of them, mostly military members and their guests — were at Homestead-Miami Speedway, marking the first time people were on that side of the fence at a NASCAR race since the coronavirus pandemic shut down sports worldwide.

Among those fans: New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara, who was wearing a T-shirt and cap with Wallace’s name on them.
