WATCH: Rashid Shaheed turns on the burners for a 76-yard punt return touchdown against the Packers

The New Orleans Saints special teams comes through as Rashid Shaheed showed off his speed for a 76-yard punt return touchdown to take a two-score lead in the second quarter. With the offense struggling to get going this season, this was a welcome sight to all on the New Orleans sideline — Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur wasn’t quite as enthused.

Shaheed’s speed has never been in doubt as he’s been a great force as a return man, but he gets his first touchdown on a return. It’s the first punt return touchdown touchdown for the Saints since Deonte Harty against the Seattle  Seahawks in Week 3 of 2019.

It was Shaheed’s fifth career touchdown and second of this season as the receiver who went undrafted in 2022 has made a name for himself in the league quickly.
