The New Orleans Saints are getting a special prize for recovering from their 0-2 start with four straight wins.

Head coach Sean Payton told ESPN's Dianna Russini that he was working to get manicurists to the Saints' facility Monday morning to celebrate the team's win over the Green Bay Packers.

Running back Mark Ingram notched over 100 scrimmage yards Sunday and will be among those first in line to get his treatment.

"We will be taking him up on that offer Monday," Ingram said, according to ESPN's Mike Triplett. "I don't know about everybody else. But I'm gonna holler at him tomorrow morning for my pedicure."

Receiver Ted Ginn Jr. was happy with the news as well, proclaiming himself "a pedicure guy."

"It's part of my swag," Ginn said. "I need to put my feet up in that hot water with all this running he got me doing."

Drew Brees will "absolutely" take advantage of Payton's offer.

"You gotta take care of your feet," said Brees.
