The opponents for the Saints’ 2024 schedule have been determined.
The slate includes games against at least six teams that qualified for the playoffs this season: the Cleveland Browns, Dallas Cowboys, Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Rams, Philadelphia Eagles and Tampa Bay Buccaneers (twice). It could be seven if the Green Bay Packers defeat the Chicago Bears today and earn a wild card spot in the NFC.
The NFL scheduling formula calls for the Saints to play nine home games and eight away games next season.
The Saints, thanks to their second-place finish in the NFC South Division, will play the second-place finishers from the NFC West (Rams), NFC North (Packers) and AFC North (Browns) in the NFL's scheduling formula.
The NFL schedule rotation pits the Saints against all four teams from the NFC East and AFC West. That means a home game against former Saints head coach Sean Payton and the Denver Broncos and road games to perennial powers Dallas and Kansas City.
The full schedule with dates and times will be released by the NFL in May.
