The New Orleans Saints have their full slate for the upcoming regular season ready to go now. They know their opponents and when they will play all of them. One piece of their schedule release has caught the eyes of media, fans, and players, seemingly.
Saints' Khalen Saunders sounds off on schedule
The Saints have zero games during primetime slots. That means the Saints are not expected to play on any Thursdays or Mondays as of now. They also don't have any opportunities on Sunday Night Football.
According to the NFL schedule release, the Saints won't play in primetime during the 2025-2026 regular season. Instead, they'll consistently play in the earlier slots on Sundays.
Saints defensive lineman Khalen Saunders is never afraid to share his thoughts on social media. He was quite perturbed about the outcome for New Orleans, regarding their lack of primetime chances.
The veteran DL surely wanted to play under the biggest lights around the league a least once this season. Instead, he will have to get used to a weekly routine of playing at either noon or in the afternoon on Sunday.
Saunders has always shown emotion on social media. It is a huge reason that many fans, both for the Saints and Kansas City Chiefs, love him. He wears his emotions on his sleeve and isn't afraid to speak his mind. Not many athletes are that way when it comes to their beliefs, hopes, or takes.

No matter what – Saunders will always be himself and be clear about his intentions. You can tell he may have some extra motivation this season to help the Saints prove they deserved more limelight around the league during games.
