This story is developing.

Interesting.... They will probably have more butts in the seats for this game than their normal home games.

Wonder how tickets will work. Relocated to Jax recently and this is really a random development to me. Would love to go and support them.

I would much rather go watch them in Jacksonville then in New Orleans.

Florida is wide open run by sensible leaders. You must show your papers and your mask anywhere you go in New Orleans. Not to mention how ghetto and dangerous New Orleans is. It’s a no brainer.

Jerry Jones probably wanted to charge too much money. That guy squeezes as much as possible out of everything.

I believe there was a concert scheduled at AT&T Stadium the following day or week.

Per NFL rules, this game HAD to be played at an NFL stadium. So anyone asking "Why not Shreveport" or SMU or any other non-NFL stadium..... that's why.

Packers GM is bitching about not having a say in this. Pretty much implying they should get an extra home game...

Screw that guy. Kind of Wish Rodgers was able to get him fired
