The Saints signed Edwards on Monday, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.

Edwards opened 2022 with the Falcons and appeared in seven games for the team, but he caught just three passes for 15 yards before getting cut in November. The 24-year-old spent the next several weeks on the Chiefs' practice squad before being let go from Kansas City as the playoffs started. In New Orleans, Edwards links back up with former teammate Derek Carr. Edwards will try to carve out a depth role this summer.

NEW ORLEANS — Fresh off his split with the Dallas Cowboys, Mike McCarthy isn’t wasting time looking for his next NFL job. The veteran coach is set to meet with the Chicago Bears on Wednesday, and he’s expected to visit the New Orleans Saints early next week, according to the NFL Network.

McCarthy’s five-year run with the Cowboys ended Monday after a disappointing 7-10 season, marking a sharp drop-off from three straight 12-5 seasons and playoff appearances. While he notched a 49-35 record in Dallas, his postseason struggles—including just one playoff win—proved costly. Failed contract...

NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports Cleveland has promoted Tommy Rees to a new post as their offensive coordinator, which leaves just Seattle on the table. Kubiak’s meeting with the Seahawks was Tuesday.

Kubiak led the New Orleans Saints offense to a hot start, and Alvin Kamara had his best rushing season of his career. The offense showed more...

NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports the Bears will interview McCarthy for their vacant head coach position on Wednesday, with his peer Ian Rapoport adding that the Saints plan on speaking with McCarthy themselves next week.

The New Orleans Saints holding on to the Sean Payton era has been a common criticism when discussing the team’s direction in recent years, as well as their ongoing coaching search. After Payton, they hired in-house with Dennis Allen. The Saints’ favorite in this cycle is widely assumed to be Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn, who was on the Saints’ staff from 2015 to 2020.

When asked about the potential bias in this connection, but not Glenn specifically, Loomis told reporters on Monday that, “I don’t know that I would agree with that. I understand the connection between...

Change is coming soon for the New Orleans Saints, who are actively looking to find their second head coach since the departure of Sean Payton.

With a change in leadership, there is always the potential for roster turnover during the offseason. And when you are over $50 million over the salary cap, the likelihood of this does increase a bit.

Maurice Moton of Bleacher Report recently predicted six league trades that could take shape this offseason. Of these six trades, one of them includes arguably the most celebrated Saint currently on the roster.

A true New Orleanian himself.
