Saints Past and Present Take to Social Media for Tom Benson

I will forever be indebted to Mr. Tom Benson for believing in me and giving me the opportunity to be a member of the Saints organization and the New Orleans community. I will miss his presence, leadership, and grandfatherly advice. We know you will continue to watch over us all with that umbrella in your hand.

My deepest condolences to Mrs. Benson and the entire Benson family. From the day I was drafted, Mr. Benson made my family and I feel right at home. A man that gave much more than he ever took, and is the reason the black and gold calls New Orleans home. May you Rest In Glory, for your memory will last into eternity. #WhoDat
