New Orleans Saints center Max Unger finally gets to play against a defense he knows so well in a game that counts. ''It's just a lot of memories of playing the defense in practice,'' Unger said when asked what he finds most compelling about the chance to play Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks, the team with which he spent his first six NFL seasons. Unger, who was popular both in the Seahawks' locker room and with Seattle fans, concedes that he was caught off guard by the 2015 trade that sent him to New Orleans, along with a first-round draft choice, in exchange for star tight end Jimmy Graham.
