Fans who had been hoping, and petitioning, (https://www.change.org/p/have-reggie-bush-run-out-with-a-bat-for-the-playoff-game-against-the-panthers-whodat) to see recently retired, former Saints running back Reggie Bush “Bring the Wood” against the Atlanta Falcons, will now get to see him lead New Orleans onto the field against conference rivals the Carolina Panthers for the start of the playoffs.
Sources have recently learned that Bush will lead the Saints in the “Who Dat” chant before the games kickoff and also out of the tunnel onto the field.
New Orleans front office said it had discussed having Reggie Bush bring his notoriously famed baseball bat onto the field with him for the game, but that NFL rules no longer permit that.
New Orleans will also be recognizing its 2009 championship team, and former players from that 2009 team will be in attendance. Some of those former players that have been confirmed include Marques Colston, Jeremy Shockey, Scott Fujita, Pierre Thomas, Garrett Hartley and Jon Stinchcomb.
Kick-off is set for 3:30 p.m. Sunday against Carolina. The Saints swept the Panthers during the regular season and are looking for a third win, as they are favored by 6.5 points currently.
