After COVID scare and little sleep, Saints rally past Lions

The New Orleans Saints overcame a two-touchdown deficit to beat Detroit – and that wasn’t the only challenge they had to overcome on short rest Sunday. Drew Brees threw two touchdown passes to Tre’Quan Smith 2:19 apart in the second quarter, helping the short-handed Saints rally to beat the Lions 35-29. ”Everybody just persevered and we found a way to get a big win,” Brees said.
