The Vikings defense had an extra supporter Sunday against the Saints.

After the Vikings' Camryn Bynum made a public plea, the couple finally secured a visa for his wife to come to the U.S. from the Philippines.

Safety Camryn Bynum's wife, Lalaine, was in the crowd for the first time after receiving a visa to enter the U.S. from her home in the Philippines. In a television interview after his game-sealing interception in the 22-17 victory vs. the 49ers on Oct. 23, Bynum asked for help from government officials in the couple's yearlong quest for a visa.
Bynum said his wife arrived in the U.S. for the first time last week. When Bynum appeared to intercept a Jameis Winston pass in the fourth quarter Sunday, he celebrated with his teammates in the end zone before tossing the ball up to Lalaine in the stands as planned.
But a replay review overturned the interception because the ball hit the turf.
"I just had to do something crazy with her here and her first game," Bynum said. "I was like I need to make a play and hand her the ball, that would be the coolest thing ever. I was glad I was able to do it, but sad it [was overturned]. I'm still posting it on Instagram."
Mike Conley was in Minneapolis, where he sounded the Gjallarhorn at the Vikings game, on Sunday during the robbery.
