The NFL will continue ahead with a Week 7 meeting between the New Orleans Saints and Pittsburgh Steelers in Paris on Oct. 25.<\/p>\n
France has seen massive protests<\/a> in the capital city and elsewhere. Buildings and streets have been significantly damaged as a result of the demonstrations.<\/p>\n For now, the NFL is proceeding with no expected changes to its plans.<\/p>\n “We continue to work closely with local authorities and partners on all operational and security matters,” the league wrote in a statement to Front Office Sports’ Mark Maske<\/a>. “We are also providing the two clubs with regular updates. There’s been no disruption or impact at league sites.”<\/p>\n This is the first year the NFL has taken a game to France as part of its International Series. The Stade de France, which is traditionally used for the French national soccer and rugby teams, is the staging ground.<\/p>\n The game will kick off at 9:30 a.m. ET (2:30 p.m. CEST).<\/p>\n There are three more games after Week 7 in the International Series. The league will head to Madrid (Week 9), Munich (Week 10) and Mexico City (Week 11).<\/p>\n
