Cornerback Janoris Jenkins touched both ends of the NFL spectrum last season by starting the year with the New York Giants and ending it with the New Orleans Saints.

The Saints claimed Jenkins off waivers from the Giants in December. He appeared in the last two games of the regular season and started in their playoff loss to the Minnesota Vikings.

As Jenkins continues to prepare for the 2020 season with the Saints, the former Pro Bowler took time to answer questions in a B/R AMA about a variety of topics, including his departure from the Giants and what happened to the Saints in their playoff game against Minnesota.

@EezOffaDeez: I'm a Giants fan but I feel like they did you and Snacks kinda dirty. Both of you were holding together a defense that was missing too many pieces. What are your thoughts?

Janoris Jenkins:
Business is business ma. In the game of football, you just gotta do what you can do and leave everything else up to the front office. I wish them well, and I had fun there.

Kellen Moore on possibly hiring his brother, Missouri OC, to Saints' staff

Credit to Kellen Moore for not tipping his hand on any of his plans for the New Orleans Saints in his introductory press conference, including his potential coaching staff. One name often speculated about joining Moore has been his own brother — Kirby Moore, the Missouri Tigers offensive coordinator. Both brothers were former teammates on the Boise State Broncos way back when.

“I’d love to work with him one day,” Moore said when his brother was brought up last week. “Obviously, he’s in a tremendous spot, a tremendous role. They’ve had a ton of success at Missouri in the last couple years...

The New Orleans Saints have interviewed Philadelphia Eagles running backs coach Jemal Singleton for their offensive coordinator opening, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter. This move that satisfies the Rooney Rule and allows them to hire an OC. You’d hope that minority candidates like Singleton and Christian Parker had a real shot at the job and weren’t just being used to check a box.

Singleton, 49, has been coaching in the NFL since 2016; he’s been a part of the Eagles’ staff since 2021 and was also named assistant head coach under Nick Sirianni. Philly has fielded one of the league’s best running...

Saints DC search signals a big change is coming for the defense

All of the New Orleans Saints’ reported candidates for defensive coordinator have experience running a 3-4 base. That signals change is coming for the Saints whether it’s Brandon Staley, Daronte Jones, or Christian Parker on the headset.

The Saints have worked out of a 4-3 base for more than a decade, dating back to Dennis Allen’s takeover as defensive coordinator. And their personnel reflects that. They don’t have an oversized nose tackle who can line up as a 0-tech, but more concerningly is their lack of lightweights who can rush the quarterback off the edge.

It’ll take time to tweak...

The future of veterans on the New Orleans Saints roster is question as they transition into a new era. After years of failure under Dennis Allen, New Orleans has moved on to Kellen Moore.

Tyrann Mathieu and Derek Carr are at the top of the list of players Moore will have to make decisions on. Carr is a candidate to be traded or released, but Mathieu has only been mentioned in trade talks.

Bleacher Report’s Kristopher Knox ranks Mathieu sixth on his offseason trade big board and sees two teams as potential destinations for him: the Cincinnati Bengals, or a reunion with the Kansas City...

Free agency is less than a month away, and although the New Orleans Saints may not be big players in 2025, there are some available players that would be a great addition to the team. This free agency should be very similar to last year, where the Saints gave a bunch of short-term, cheap contracts so the team can continue to rebuild the cap. Due to the state of the current roster, some additions will need to be made before the draft, so let's take a look at some of the free agents the Saints can target in 2025.

Although the Saints might be looking for a starting quarterback in 2025, free...

Saints set to interview two new candidates for defensive coordinator

With Kellen Moore hired as head coach, the New Orleans Saints need to get their defensive coordinator correct. Moore’s focus will be mainly on the offense and play calling, so the defensive coordinator must do his job on that side of the ball. The Saints are one step closer to that decision and are set to interview for Chargers HC Brandon Staley and Eagles DB coach Christian Parker, per Albert Breer.

It makes sense that Brandon Staley is the favorite for the Saints DC job. Staley coached the Super Bowl-winning Rams defense in 2021 and was hired to become the Chargers HC in 2022, where...

Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the New Orleans Saints are set to interview Philadelphia Eagles quarterbacks coach Doug Nussmeier for their open spot at offensive coordinator.

This is the second different OC candidate that the Saints have requested to interview.

This move is not surprising. Ever since his days in Dallas, Nussmeier has followed Moore around, first to L.A., then to Philly.

His coaching experience is mostly college ball, but he has been coaching in the NFL since 2020, where he was the Dallas Cowboys tight ends coach. Nussmeier is also a former Saints QB, drafted in the...

A little spark was added to the New Orleans Saints-Atlanta Falcons rivalry over the weekend, as Falcons tight ends coach Kevin Koger declined an interview request for the Saints’ vacant offensive coordinator position. NFL teams can block interviews for lateral moves, but in this case Koger turned them down rather than pursue a promotion.

Koger spent some time with new Saints head coach Kellen Moore during the 2023 season when Moore was an OC in L.A. During his three seasons in L.A. from 2021-2023, Koger led a room with guys such as Gerald Everett and Donald Parham achieve their most...

Kellen Moore made sure to praise Alvin Kamara during his introductory press conference as New Orleans Saints head coach, which set the stage for the running back to remain an integral part of the offense.

Bleacher Report’s Alex Kay sees the value of the pairing as well. Kay laid out fantasy football winners and losers going into the 2025 season based on the coaching cycle additions and departures.

Kamara was a winner, and Saquon Barkley was a loser. That’s the impact of the Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator-turned-Saints head coach.
