When Jo-Lonn Dunbar walked into the Saints’ practice facility Thursday, he saw his name on the wall.
Dunbar, along with every member of the Saints’ Super Bowl team, is emblazoned on a banner that hangs from ceiling to floor.
He hadn’t seen it yet. Dunbar pulled out his phone and snapped a few pictures to send to his mother. Four years after he last played in New Orleans, Dunbar is back where his career began.
“You always know, once you build good relationships, that thing kind of happens,” Dunbar said. “It was just always stuck in my mind — maybe I could come back and play here.
