If the New Orleans Saints are going to begin playing home games up the road at LSU’s Tiger Stadium, they won’t start until Week 11. The Athletic’s Jeff Duncan reports that the Saints will remain at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome for Week 7’s game against the Carolina Panthers on Oct. 25 after discussions between the Saints and LSU identified too many logistical issues in moving now.
The Saints are scheduled to play Carolina the day after a night game at Tiger Stadium between LSU and South Carolina, which is also the case for the next Saints home game (Week 10’s matchup with the San Francisco 49ers follows an LSU night game against Alabama).
