Oh and one other, his last minute TD catch against Atlanta in 2008 week 10 when the game was already over.

Not a specific moment, but remember 2011 as being the first season I really noticed Colston & started paying closer attention ... not bad for the 252nd pick outta' Hofstra,

. Best of luck buddy,

Drew Brees trying to get him killed in the San Francisco game.

After watching the above video, his nickname should have been "Mr First Down"... "And Then Some".

There are so many......it's hard to differentiate between all of his clutch catches over ten years. Father Time waits for no man. It is the natural evolution and NFL process. From 7th rounder to the leader of a franchise on the rebound. Maybe he made Drew look good.

Saints vs Panthers Highlights

his TD catches in this game were a thing of beauty

-- all those back/shoulder receptions, indefensible, for first downs.
He was the best.
Much Love #12.

My Favorite memories will be The Fact that for his initial 6 seasons, he was the epitome of consistency. I wish him Well. Hopefully he signs a 1 day contract to retire a New Orleans Saint.

This would have not worked out with any other QB. Not taking anything away from the man but the precision of those back shoulder gifts kept him viable for a long time, many of which put him in situations where he got absolutely pounded just like a TE. SB though, he kept dem chains moving. Will never forget that effort. Very critical in that game. I think a lot of people forget that fact.

That's what I was thinking watching that 2011 highlights film ... said to myself, "daayyuumm, that guy took some hits" ... definitely old-school,
