METAIRIE, La. — Ted Ginn Jr.’s debut with the New Orleans Saints wasn’t exactly awe-inspiring. Two targets, zero catches and one dropped pass in the end zone before the starters called it an early night in a 20-14 loss to the Cleveland Browns on Thursday.
The drop was a little disconcerting, since that is a problem that has plagued Ginn throughout his 10-year NFL career.
But coach Sean Payton was quick to insist Friday that Ginn has done enough good things this summer after signing a three-year, $11 million contract to forgive the occasional misplay.
