Schefter says that Saints president Dennis Lauscha says that NFL and stadium officials are currently finalizing the deal.
Since 2007, the NFL has hosted regular-season games abroad as part of its NFL International Series. Previously, games have been played in England, Germany, Mexico, and other European and South American countries. The effort continues to expand with more countries hosting games to be announced in the coming years.
The Saints secured the rights to host games in Paris back in May 2025. The future match will be the first-ever NFL regular-season game played in Paris.
