Getting old doesn’t bother Ted Ginn Jr.; he’s learned to embrace a little gray hair in his eleventh NFL season.
“People keep asking me, ‘How do you keep doing it?’” said Ginn, the former Carolina Panthers wide receiver who signed with the New Orleans Saints for this season. That means a third rematch with his former team, this time in the playoffs Sunday at the Superdome.
The Saints are his fifth NFL team. Ginn spent two separate stints with the Panthers, separated by a season with the Arizona Cardinals in 2014. That stay in Phoenix didn’t work out so well, but the Carolina seasons that bracketed 2014 were some of the best work by Ginn, known for speed that can blow off the top of an opposing secondary.
