Hurricane Ida continues to prompt changes for the New Orleans Saints. The team canceled its Aug. 28 preseason game with the Arizona Cardinals due to the approach of a strong hurricane, and now they’re planning to follow a citywide voluntary evacuation order and fly out to Dallas for several days.
The Times-Picayune Advocate’s Jeff Duncan and Amie Just first reported the Saints’ evacuation plan, which was confirmed by the Athletic’s Katherine Terrell. The Saints intend to practice at the Dallas Cowboys’ AT&T Stadium through Wednesday, Sept. 1.
It’s going to be a difficult few days for several reasons.
