Seventh-round draft pick Bisi Johnson made catches of 17 and 18 yards, respectively, from Sean Mannion in the second quarter, including an impressive touchdown catch on third-and-4 over the top of Saints cornerback Patrick Robinson.


Cousins called it a “unique feeling” to watch the play from the sideline.


“It was great for me to have that perspective,” Cousins said. “Great catch by him, and then also Sean to be able to stand in there and take that hit as he was throwing it, that’s not easy to do. He threw it with great trust that [Bisi] would come down with it, and he did.


“To convert a third down was also important,” Cousins added. “Lot of good things happening on that play.”


Johnson said the feeling was “amazing” and laughed that he was “in shock” before breaking into a celebration.
