President Trump on Sunday's game in Paris: "The NFL probably could have postponed"

Published October 23, 2026 10:51 PM The NFL plans to press forward with Sunday’s game between the Steelers and Saints in Paris.Asked about the situation by reporters on Friday, President Trump expressed misgivings about the decision.“Well, you worry about it,” he said. “It’s not — I think maybe it’s looking like tomorrow’s gonna be a bad day in France. So you worry about it. I would have said the NFL could have probably postponed that match, if you want to know the truth. Because France is really in trouble.”Postponement isn’t really possible, given the NFL’s schedule. Relocation would make the most sense, with the game moving to one of the two NFL-ready stadiums in London. (As best we can tell, both Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and Wembley Stadium are available.)For now, the NFL’s attitude is “the show must go on.” Even if the show could end up being something far different than what the NFL has envisioned.
