Marquez Valdes-Scantling shined with three receptions for 109 yards and two touchdowns, leading the New Orleans Saints to a 20-17 victory over the Atlanta Falcons. This win marked a fresh start for interim coach Darren Rizzi, who took over after Dennis Allen's dismissal.

Tyrann Mathieu's interception of Kirk Cousins helped secure the win, while Alvin Kamara set a franchise rushing record. Despite rushing for 181 yards, Atlanta fell short, missing several scoring opportunities.
