Winner – Kwon Alexander

Kwon Alexander has only been with the team now for a couple of games. The first week after his trade from San Francisco to New Orleans, he didn’t suit up. Last week, Alexander played, but he only totaled three total tackles.

This week Alexander made his name more known among Saints’ fans with the only fumble recovery of the game. This is the first big play that Alexander has made for the black and gold. He did so on the back of another three tackles.

Slowly but surely, Kwon Alexander is becoming a force in the Saints defense. I know Demario Davis appreciates the help in the middle of the field. Hopefully, this is just the first of many big plays that Alexander will make in his time with New Orleans.

The Saints are now on an eight-straight winning streak. They will take that streak back to Atlanta in Week 13 to play the Falcons for the second time in three weeks. This will also be their second to last NFC South opponent, looking to go a perfect 8-0 in the division.
