NFL plans to increase security after Paris attacks

The NFL announced Saturday that it will have "an increased security and law enforcement presence" at games this weekend, a response to terrorist attacks in Paris that included explosions outside France's national soccer stadium.

The league said in a statement that it has been in communication with the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI since Friday's attacks and "that there are no known threats against NFL stadiums."

However, the NFL announced it has arranged to have additional security both inside the 13 stadiums that will host games Sunday and Monday and in the parking lots surrounding them.
