In a scary reminder of the events of three years ago, the New Orleans Saints are being forced from their city as a hurricane approaches.
Adam Schefter of NFL Network reports (via PFT) that the Saints will evacuate New Orleans on Sunday and spend the week practicing at the RCA Dome in Indianapolis, where the Colts played until moving into Lucas Oil Stadium this month.
The Saints expect to return home and play as scheduled, at home, on Sunday, September 7 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Let’s hope New Orleans is in good enough shape to host that game.
