Trump Urges NFL to Delay Paris Game as France Faces Potential Unrest Sunday

Summary
Sunday’s Steelers-Saints game in Paris is still set to go ahead, even after President Trump said the NFL "could have probably postponed" it because France is "really in trouble."
Trump said Friday that "tomorrow's gonna be a bad day in France," framing his concern around security risks rather than the matchup itself.
Postponement is seen as impractical because of the NFL schedule, leaving relocation as the more workable fallback if conditions worsen.
London offers two NFL-ready alternatives — Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and Wembley Stadium — but for now the league’s stance remains that the game will proceed.
