Brady had just thrown an incomplete pass to Scotty Miller, and when the quarterback ran down to protest the lack of a pass interference penalty call, Lattimore appeared to gesture at Brady. The star quarterback went over to confront Lattimore when Leonard Fournette gave him a shove.
Evans seemingly came out of nowhere and pushed Lattimore to the ground.
Both Evans and Lattimore were ejected from the game.
Winston’s interception to Edwards would seemingly give the Buccaneers all they needed to close out the win. He had a late touchdown pass to Michael Thomas toward the game’s end.
Winston finished 25-for-40 with 236 passing yards, a touchdown pass and three interceptions. Chris Olave led Saints receivers with five catches for 80 yards. Thomas had six catches for 60 yards.
