New Orleans Saints
No franchise in professional football is more deeply embedded in the soul of its city than the Saints are in New Orleans—a team that absorbed the city's capacity for celebration and its familiarity with catastrophe until the two were indistinguishable. Drew Brees and Super Bowl XLIV gave the city its coronation, and the Superdome will be loud again.
Current Leadership
Owner & Chairman
Gayle Benson inherited ownership of the Saints and the NBA's New Orleans Pelicans upon the death of her husband Tom Benson in 2018. She has maintained the franchise's commitment to New Orleans and its community, while overseeing the team during its transition from the Drew Brees era.

Historical Figures
Owner
Automobile dealer and banking executive Tom Benson purchased the Saints in 1985 for $70.2 million and transformed the franchise from lovable losers to Super Bowl champions. He kept the team in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina and oversaw the greatest era in franchise history under Drew Brees and Sean Payton.
Owner
Texas oil heir John Mecom Jr. was the Saints' original owner, purchasing the expansion franchise in 1966. His 18-year tenure was marked by the franchise's extended period of futility, with the Saints failing to post a single winning season during his ownership.
