Saints legend Jahri Evans set to be added to team’s Ring of Honor

The date has been set for New Orleans Saints legend Jahri Evans to be added to the team’s Ring of Honor, in front of a full house:

The New Orleans Saints have announced another addition to their Ring of Honor, which currently only is host to seven members. Legendary offensive lineman Jahri Evans will be added to the group and will be forever enshrined in Saints history as one of the team’s most influential members.

The Saints Ring of Honor was created on Oct. 9, 2013, and inducted three players in its first year, but has not inducted any since 2021. The first three added were Archie Manning, Rickey Jackson, and Willie Roaf. From then on, it was Morten Anderson in 2015, Tom Benson in 2019, Will Smith in 2019, and Sam Mills in 2021. It would also be a fair assumption to believe Drew Brees will eventually be added to this group as well.

The ceremony for Evans’ induction into the Ring of Honor will take place at halftime of their Week 11 game against the Cleveland Browns, on Nov. 17 with a 1 P.M. CT kickoff time. After 11 seasons with the Saints of extremely high level play, he is no doubt deserving of this honor and his name will forever be displayed on the upper terrace of the Caesars Superdome.
