New Orleans Saints Announce 2025 Training Camp Schedule Amid Injury Concerns
The New Orleans Saints will commence their 2025 training camp on July 23, 2025, at the Ochsner Sports Performance Center in Metairie. The team is looking to rebound from a disappointing 2024 season in which they only secured five wins. With a current roster that features several key players, the upcoming training camp is crucial for the Saints as they prepare for the new NFL season.
Key Player Injuries to Monitor
Among the significant concerns heading into training camp is the status of quarterback Jake Haener, who missed both the mandatory minicamp and organized team activities (OTAs) due to an ongoing injury. His ability to compete for the starting quarterback position is in question as he works towards recovery.
Additionally, gadget player Taysom Hill and tight end Foster Moreau are recovering from injuries and also missed the essential offseason activities. Hill, who has a substantial cap hit exceeding $17 million for the 2025 season, presents an uncertain future with the team. To add depth at the tight end position, the Saints re-signed Juwan Johnson during the offseason and retained Jack Stoll on the roster.
Roster Decisions on the Horizon
As training camp progresses, tough decisions will loom for the Saints, particularly as they work to cut down their roster to the required 53 players. The training camp is not only a platform for regular players to hone their skills but also for newcomers vying for a spot on the team.
Open Practices for Fans
The Saints will offer nine practices that are open to the public throughout the training camp, with the first public session scheduled to start at 9:00 a.m. on July 23. Fans will enjoy covered bleacher seating, enhanced with misting systems for comfort during the Louisiana heat.
Parking is complimentary at the Shrine on Airline, located at 6000 Airline Drive, Metairie. Shuttle buses will transport fans from the parking area to the practice field. Gates for public entry will open at 8:15 a.m..
Ticket Reservations for Practices
Although attendance to practices is free, fans must reserve their tickets in advance due to limited seating capacity. Saints season ticket holders will have priority and can begin reserving tickets at 9:00 a.m. on July 1. Fans on the waitlist for season tickets can start reserving tickets at 9:30 a.m., followed by general public reservations starting at 10:00 a.m. on the same day. Tickets can be acquired through the Saints’ website, mobile app, or the SeatGeek app.
Upcoming Events
During training camp, the Saints will also participate in the NFL’s “Back Together Weekend”, which includes an open practice on July 27. After concluding their practices in Metairie, the team will relocate to Irvine, California, on August 6 for a ten-day training camp segment. Their preseason opener will occur against the Los Angeles Chargers at SoFi Stadium, followed by a matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars on August 17, after returning to New Orleans on August 15.
As the Saints gear up for training camp, the focus will be on rebuilding team dynamics while addressing vital player health, all in pursuit of a more successful season in 2025.
