Brett Hundley throws four TD passes in Packers’ win over Saints

Rookie Brett Hundley threw for four scores and the Green Bay Packers finished the preseason with a 38-10 win Thursday night over the New Orleans Saints.

Hundley, the fifth-round draft pick from UCLA, connected with Larry Pinkard on a 77-yard catch-and-run touchdown pass in the third quarter for the Packers. Pinkard had a highlight-reel play that the roster longshot needed to make an impression with cuts looming, though he later left with an apparent left arm injury in the third quarter.

Hundley completed 16 of 23 passes for 236 yards. He appears ticketed to be the third-string quarterback in Green Bay behind NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers and Scott Tolzien, who started Thursday with Rodgers watching in sweats.
