It's the Saints official NFL logo. Of course the NFL owns that.
Actually, the Fleur De Lis isn't the property of the NFL. It hails from France, and then New Orleans. You can't own someone's cultural symbol. You can tie it up in court and bleed people to death with high powered lawyers, but you can't win that one.

Again they do not have a trade make on the Fluer De Lis, but they can trademark the particular one used as the saints logo. the same as all other logos used in the NFL. The item itself is not trademarked just that particular representation. I.E. horse head, horse shoe, NY, Dolphin etc.
