The New Orleans Saints will induct late owner Tom Benson into the franchise's Ring of Honor during halftime of Sunday's season opener against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
"The New Orleans Saints and the city of New Orleans meant so much to my husband," said Saints owner Gayle Benson in a new release. "He was so proud of them and wanted the team and the entire region to be admired worldwide. He was also grateful to our fans for their commitment to the Saints. That passion and support of our fans inspired him to give back to the community like he did.
