New Orleans Saints coach Sean Payton says the club expects the Dallas area and TCU practice facilities to serve as their home base into Week 2 of the NFL season. The Saints have been displaced since the day before Hurricane Ida struck southeast Louisiana. The Saints had a closed practice indoors at TCU on Monday and will be there at the very least until they fly to Jacksonville to play Green Bay in a regular-season opener that had been originally scheduled for the Superdome. Payton says he expects his team to return to the Dallas area after that game.
