| Happy Friday. Welcome to the Saints Insider newsletter for Aug. 26. There’s a game today as the Saints play their final preseason game. This one is in the Caesars Superdome against the Los Angeles Chargers. It's a crucial game for some players trying to make their way onto the team’s 53-man roster. One of those players is former Destrehan High standout Kirk Merritt, who last played a game in the Dome in 2014 during his senior year of high school. The stakes are much higher this time around. Here’s a story on Merritt and why this game is so big for him. Luke Johnson breaks down the 4 things to look for in Friday’s game. Also in Saints’ news, owner Gayle Benson purchased the site of Chris Owens’ Bourbon Street club. That's it for today.
