Small frame, big potential

Willie Snead, like fellow Saints receiver Tommylee Lewis, grew up in Palm Beach County, Florida.

So Snead has an idea just why Lewis (and everybody else from that part of the country) is so darned quick on the football field.

“I think it might be something in the water, to be honest with you,” Snead explains.

OK, maybe it’s a little more than that.

Lewis credits his speed and quickness to all those days he spent running on the beach and up and down hills growing up.

Whatever it is, it helped the undrafted rookie free agent stand out during Saints minicamp this week.
