Here is our downloadable New Orleans Saints 2024 schedule for your desktop or mobile device wallpaper, including dates and times for all 17 games on this year’s slate.

The Saints will play three prime time games against the Kansas City Chiefs, Denver Broncos, and Green Bay Packers while working to rise above their rivals in the NFC South. While they are tied for the easiest strength of schedule in the league, the Saints themselves aren’t exactly an opponent teams fear of Sundays. They have a lot of doubters to prove wrong in 2024.

Here is our downloadable schedule highlighting star talents like Alvin Kamara, Chris Olave, Cameron Jordan, and Derek Carr:

LOOK: The New Orleans Saints 2024 schedule is officially here

The New Orleans Saints 2024 schedule is officially here, with three prime time games and a lot of noon kickoffs:

Finally. The NFL announced its schedule of games for all 32 teams on Wednesday evening, including the New Orleans Saints — whose regular season slate includes three prime time games and a lot of noon kickoffs, as well as a well-placed bye week.

If the Saints are going to make some noise in 2024, it’ll be their own doing. They won’t get many high-profile national broadcasts to help draw outside attention. It’s past time for head coach Dennis Allen to prove he can get this squad to the playoffs after coming up short in each of his first two seasons on the job.

Here is the Saints’ complete 2024 schedule:

Important 2024 NFL offseason dates for Saints fans to know

Important 2024 NFL offseason dates for New Orleans Saints fans to know concerning free agency, the NFL draft, and more:

It’s shaping up for another busy New Orleans Saints offseason — along with the usual salary cap gymnastics, the Saints must navigate free agency, make moves in the 2024 NFL draft, and install an updated offense with Klint Kubiak calling plays and new position coaches being introduced in almost every meeting room.

To help fans keep track of everything, we’ve put together a calendar of important dates to remember in the months ahead. Some key milestones are unclear, like when the NFL will confirm the 2024 salary cap and compensatory draft picks (it’ll be done before free agency in March) as well as this year’s games schedule (rolling out at some point in May).

But here’s what we do know:

NFL announces start date for 2023 New Orleans Saints training camp

The NFL announced its start date for 2023 New Orleans Saints training camp, though we’re still waiting on details for practices open for fans to attend:

We’re getting closer: the NFL has confirmed that New Orleans Saints rookies will first report for their 2023 training camp on Tuesday, July 18, with their veteran teammates joining them at the Ochsner Sports Performance Center a week later on July 25 (which was already reported locally in New Orleans).

That marks the official start of Saints training camp, at which point everyone will go through the conditioning test to determine whether they’re ready to start work right away or open camp on a reserve list.

But we’re still waiting on information for the dates in which fans can attend to observe practice. The Saints typically open up free tickets on a first-come, first-serve basis for 10 to 12 practice sessions before closing out camp with a scrimmage at Tulane’s Yulman Stadium or inside the Caesars Superdome. So stay tuned for more details as they become available.

Saints training camp to begin July 26, open practices yet to be announced

Per multiple reports, New Orleans Saints training camp is scheduled to begin July 26, though practice dates open for fans are yet to be announced:

[anyclip pubname=”2103″ widgetname=”0016M00002U0B1kQAF_M8036″]

Let’s start with the good news. The New Orleans Saints are still finalizing details for their 2023 training camp, but we know the most important date: Wednesday, July 26. That’s when camp will start, as first reported by Nola.com’s Jeff Duncan and confirmed by NewOrleans.Football’s Nick Underhill.

Veteran players will report for work on July 24, with their rookie teammates arriving at the practice facility in Metairie a week earlier. Everyone will go through a conditioning test on July 25. It’s a typical schedule for New Orleans. Additionally, we know that the Saints plan to share the practice field with the Houston Texans for a few days leading up to their Aug. 27 preseason game.

Now the bad news: we don’t know exactly when practice sessions will be open to the public. The Saints have welcomed fans to attend a select number of outdoor practices in the past, and that’s the plan again this year — but the team won’t make that information available for a few more weeks. So stay tuned for dates, times, and whether you’ll need to reserve tickets.

New Orleans Saints finalize times and dates for 2023 preseason games

The New Orleans Saints finalized the times and dates for their three-game 2023 preseason series:

[anyclip pubname=”2103″ widgetname=”0016M00002U0B1kQAF_M8036″]

The New Orleans Saints finalized the times and dates for their three-game 2023 preseason series, having previously announced the matchups while waiting on the NFL to set the schedule for these exhibition games. Their first two games will be broadcast locally on FOX with the third and final game getting a national broadcast.

Here’s the Saints’ preseason schedule:

  • Aug. 13: Saints vs. Kansas City Chiefs, noon CT (FOX 8)
  • Aug. 20: Saints at Los Angeles Chargers, 6:05 p.m. CT (FOX 8)
  • Aug. 27: Saints vs. Houston Texans, 7 p.m. CT (FOX)

New Orleans will make the most of that one road trip to Los Angeles by scheduling a couple of joint practices with the Chargers in the days leading up to the preseason game, just like they did last summer with the Green Bay Packers.

We’ll see how often the Saints play their starters and other high-profile rookies, but this should be a good opportunity for fans to get a look at the many competitions brewing for training camp as players work to lock down a limited number of roster spots.

LOOK: The New Orleans Saints’ 2023 schedule is here

The New Orleans Saints announced their schedule for the 2023 season, including several games against last season’s playoff teams and rookie quarterbacks:

We’re going into Year 2 of the Dennis Allen era with the New Orleans Saints, and expectations are high for this team after they came up short last season. It’s playoffs or bust for a Saints team that’s gone all-in this offseason, recruiting a new starting quarterback in Derek Carr and moving tens of millions of dollars around to fit talented free agent pickups under the salary cap.

They should get where they want to go with this favorable schedule. Just one opponent won double-digit games last year (the Minnesota Vikings, at a fraudulent 13-4). Few of this year’s matchups will be against teams returning from the playoff tournament. With a weak division in front of them and many winnable games lined up, there are going to be no excuses should Allen’s squad miss the postseason again. Here’s every game on their 2023 schedule:

Week Date Opponent Time (CT) Tickets
1 Sept. 10 vs. Tennessee Titans 12 p.m. Tickets
2 Sept. 18 at Carolina Panthers 6:15 p.m. Tickets
3 Sept. 24 at Green Bay Packers 12 p.m. Tickets
4 Oct. 1 vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers 12 p.m. Tickets
5 Oct. 8 at New England Patriots 12 p.m. Tickets

7 Oct. 19 vs. Jacksonville Jaguars 7:15 p.m. Tickets
8 Oct. 29 at Indianapolis Colts 12 p.m. Tickets
