If the old saying about “life coming at you fast” is true, it certainly had nothing on Spencer Rattler, who faced a unique challenge of having his NFL career’s first two games scheduled over a grueling four-day span. Appropriately responding with lightning-quick speed of his own, the New Orleans Saints’ fifth-round rookie balanced himself amidst the Denver Broncos’ ferocious edge-to-edge pass rush before turboing through traffic for an eye-opening, 28-yard carry. Putting multifaceted gifts on exhibit during the 33-10 loss on Thursday Night Football, Rattler finished 25-of-35 for 172 yards, accompanied by five carries for 34 yards on Oct. 17, 2024.
