NEW YORK — From Seattle to New York, NFL fans were bracing for increased security inside and outside stadiums on Sunday as America's most popular sports league responded to a series of attacks across Paris that left at least 129 dead.
While the U.S. Department of Homeland Security informed the National Football League there were no known specific threats, Commissioner Roger Goodell was taking no chances and ordered beefed-up security at all venues.
"The safety of our fans, stadium personnel, and teams at all NFL games is our priority, and security at our games is robust," the league said in a statement.
