TAMPA, Fla. -- Tim Hightower said he was trying to hold back the tears in the postgame locker room Sunday because he didn't want to give his New Orleans Saints teammates any ammo to tease him with.
"But I'm sure when I call my wife and my son on FaceTime, they'll get a couple," admitted Hightower, whose performance highlighted his remarkable comeback after more than three years out of the NFL.
