The New Orleans Saints’ 2025 opponents are set in stone. The team just finished their worst season in 19 years, but there’s a couple of silver linings for a poor record. For one thing, a better draft pick. For another, a low ranking in the division, and because the Saints finished last in the NFC South they’ll square off with other last-place finishers in the NFC East, NFC North, and AFC South next year.
Here’s who is visiting the Caesars Superdome for eight home games, and who the Saints will have to play on the road in nine road matchups:
