Eric Guliford's 102-yard kick return TD is the Saints Play of the Day

There are 102 days to go until the New Orleans Saints kick off their 2026 regular season -- that means this 102-yard kick return touchdown by Eric Guliford back in 1997 is our Saints Play of the Day in the countdown.

>Guliford gave the Saints some life late in the second quarter, answering a 30-yard touchdown pass from Rams quarterback Tony Banks to wide receiver Torrance Small with a score of his own, which you can see here. This was one of the last touchdowns Guliford scored in his five-year NFL career, but he made it count.

>And for a long time he owned the Saints' franchise record for the longest kick return touchdown. 20 years, in fact, until Alvin Kamara broke the record with a 106-yard kick return TD in 2017. The team may have fallen short that day against the Rams, but Guliford earned his place in New Orleans Saints history.
