Last season the Pittsburgh Steelers made history by traveling to Dublin to take on the Minnesota Vikings in Ireland. It was the first NFL game to be played in the country, as the Steelers defeated the Vikings 24-21 in front of over 74,00 fans. This season, the Steelers will have another opportunity to make history by playing in the NFL’s inaugural Paris game.

According to Mike DeFabo of The Athletic, the Steelers will take on the New Orleans Saints on October 25th at 9:30 AM EST. The week 7 contest will be played at the Stade de France, the national stadium of France. The stadium has a capacity of 80,689 and is located right in the heart of Paris.

Hearing this is accurate. The Steelers are headed to Paris this season. https://t.co/SxwcYYCteN

The Steelers last met the Saints on November 13th, 2022 in Acrisure Stadium. Pittsburgh defeated New Orleans 20-10 in the contest. The full NFL schedule release will take place Thursday at 8 P.M. EST.
