NFL Schedule Leaks: Saints play Giants on the road before Paris game
The latest NFL schedule leaks have the New Orleans Saints playing the New York Giants on the road before traveling to Paris the following week.
We're hours away from the 2026 NFL schedule release, but game dates are already being leaked on the New Orleans Saints ' opponents. The latest rumors have the Saints visiting the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium on Sunday, Oct. 18 for a kickoff at Noon CT/1 p.
m. ET. That would fall in Week 6 just before the Saints fly out for a Week 7 game in Paris against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
It would make a lot of sense for the Saints to plan on flying directly from New York to France; travel times top out at around seven and a half hours, and a private chartered flight would get there sooner. That's the same approach the Saints took back in 2022, when they traveled from Charlotte, N. C.
to London, England for their last NFL International Series game. That gives them a full week to acclimate to a new time zone and prepare for that Steelers game. But back to the Giants.
