It's game week and the New Orleans Saints are back in action at their 2021 training camp.
After a day off on Sunday, the team stayed inside for a high-energy practice loaded with spirited battles in 7-on-7 and 11-on-11 drills.
"Even if they're outside and they're off, the coaches expect you to have a little pep in your step," Cajun Cannon Bobby Hebert said after practice.
The Saints were again working on red zone sets, with Juwan Johnson standing out to close the day. After starting out with a pair of drops, he caught three passes to close out the day in team drills. Two went for scores, and another saw him hit hard and undercut on a tough grab inside the numbers.
"He's being targeted a lot and he's coming up with some big plays," Hebert said.
Watch the video above for the full breakdown by Hebert and SportsTalk's Kristian Garic after practice on Aug. 9.
