Report: Former Saints teammates collide at Seahawks-Titans practice
Two former New Orleans Saints teammates were shaken up in a big collision during the Tennessee Titans' joint practice with the Seattle Seahawks.
Former New Orleans Saints teammates Rashid Shaheed and Alontae Taylor collided during a Seahawks-Titans practice, reminiscent of their days together in New Orleans. Shaheed, now with the Seattle Seahawks, and Taylor, now with the Tennessee Titans, reunited on the practice field to give it their all for their new teams. Tennessee's Nick Suss noted that Shaheed sustained a significant hit from Taylor while breaking up a pass.
Despite appearing shaken, both returned to play, with Taylor intercepting a pass and scoring a touchdown, followed by Shaheed making a critical play on a third-down conversion in the red zone. Shaheed was traded to Seattle mid-season and played a pivotal role in their Super Bowl run, while Taylor secured a lucrative contract with Tennessee in free agency.
The Titans have high hopes that Taylor's defensive prowess can cushion the impact of young quarterback Cam Ward. With Jake Bobo's knee injury complicating matters further, Shaheed's extension with Seattle becomes even more crucial.
