Saints News, 6/20/14: Khiry Robinson Takes Paintball To The Face During Team Outing

It's all fun and games until someone gets shot in the face ... just ask New Orleans Saints running back Khiry Robinson who took a pellet to the grill during a paintball outing last week ... and TMZ Sports has the dramatic (hilarious) video.
