Bizarre play. He's going to replay that one for a loooong time.

I think he broke on the ball and then changed his mind and thought it wasnt going to be caught, so avoided contact so as not to draw a penalty that would've set up a Fg.
As they said on post game, as the Saints took a timeout just before the play and the message was likely to the secondary to not take a pass interference call.
