Prince Albert’s link to New Orleans Saints and NFL game in France

What happened: Greg Bensel, executive vice-president of the New Orleans Saints, discussed Prince Albert of Monaco's involvement with the team as they aim to host an NFL regular season game in France for the first time.

Why it matters:
