The recent terror attacks in Paris have had had far-reaching effects on the U.S., as the National Football League is just one of the country's sports leagues that will increase security during games, according to The Washington Post.  The NFL released a statement Saturday, saying that there will be an increase in security as a result of the events in France.

At least 129 people have been killed in bombings, and 352 people have been wounded in attacks across Paris, including at a soccer game. One bomber who had a ticket to the game was turned away after being patted down by security, The Wall Street Journal reported. After a security guard found an explosives vest, the terrorist ran outside and detonated the bomb outside the stadium.

The NFL has issued a statement detailing how stadiums across the country will help fans stay safe.

"The safety of our fans, stadium personnel and teams at all NFL games is our priority, and security at our games is robust," the statement reads. "Our procedures have been certified and designated by the Department of Homeland Security since 2008 as effective anti-terrorism technology. All NFL clubs use mandatory metal detector screening and multiple layers of perimeter security external to the stadium to safeguard fans and the stadium from explosive threats."

The league also cautioned fans not to bring bags to football stadiums.

"If it is essential to bring a bag, it must be in compliance with the clear bag policy which requires that it be made of clear plastic, vinyl or PVC and not exceed 12″ x 6″ x 12″. It is important that all fans comply with these requirements, and we appreciate their efforts to cooperate with these security measures," said league said.

Despite the heightened security at upcoming football games, the NFL said that "there are no known threats against NFL stadiums" after communicating with the FBI, according to ESPN.
