There is some important COVID-19 related information to keep in mind before you attend training camp:

Vaccination and Mask Policies

While proof of vaccination is not required to attend training camp and masks are not required, the Saints organization is encouraging fans who are not vaccinated to wear masks while attending practices, keeping in accordance with all current local and state regulations.

COVID-19 Vaccinations

Ochsner Health, the Saints' health care partner, will offer fans walk-up opportunities to receive COVID-19 vaccinations on days that practices are open to the public at a station in the parking lot.

Player Autograph/Interactions

Player autographs and personal interactions/photos will not be available at all during the 2021 Training Camp due to NFL-NFLPA COVID-19 protocols.
