Watch Jamie Collins score the Patriots’ first touchdown of preseason

The New England linebacker grabbed a pick-6 on the Saints' second pass of the game.

Jamie Collins’ preseason is off to strong start.

The Patriots’ linebacker intercepted Saints quarterback Garrett Grayson in the first quarter of the teams’ preseason opener on Thursday. Patriots safety Patrick Chung tipped Grayson’s pass before Collins grabbed the ball. Collins returned the pick 43 yards into the end zone.

The Patriots extended their early lead to 8-0 with a 2-point conversion on a rush by James White.
