The New Orleans Saints are marching on without longtime offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael.

The team posted on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday that head coach Dennis Allen dismissed Carmichael. Senior offensive assistant Bob Bicknell and wide receivers coach Kodi Burns were also let go.

Carmichael joined the Saints in 2006 when Sean Payton was named head coach. He won Super Bowl 44 with the team and was the last remaining coach from Payton's regime. Payton, who was the play-caller through almost the entirety of his run with the franchise, is now the head coach of the Denver Broncos after stepping down from the Saints following the 2021 campaign.

This past season, the Saints ranked 13th in the league with 4,225 passing yards and 21st with 1,742 yards on the ground. In his first season with the team, Derek Carr threw 25 touchdowns and eight interceptions. Jameis Winston saw action in seven games and created controversy when he had Jamaal Williams score a touchdown instead of taking a knee in the season finale against NFC South rival the Atlanta Falcons. Five-time Pro Bowl running back Alvin Kamara missed the first three games due to a suspension stemming from his involvement in a Las Vegas fight. ...

Takeaways from Mickey Loomis' pre-draft press conference

We’re rapidly approaching the 2024 NFL draft, and New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis shed some light on what the black and gold might be planning in his annual pre-draft press conference with local media. Loomis fielded questions on a variety of topics — mostly centered on the draft, but some focusing on other major issues with the team — and for the most part avoided tipping his hand.

Still, it’s worth checking in on what he was willing to divulge.

Trevor Penning not yet an option at guard for the Saints

Trevor Penning’s NFL career has not gone as planned. The 2022 first-round pick only started one game in his rookie year, and the New Orleans Saints benched him after just six starts last season. Now he’s going into Year 3 without a spot guaranteed in the starting lineup. So what’s the plan for him? What can he do to ditch the dreaded “bust” label?

Will Penning move inside to guard in 2024, or is he still training to play at left tackle? Is he still seen as a tackle at all? How does Mickey Loomis answer that question?

“Yeah,” Loomis confirmed when asked exactly that during Tuesday’s...

Just how confident is Mickey Loomis that Marshon Lattimore will be playing for the New Orleans Saints this year? The team’s general manager fielded questions from local media during his pre-2024 draft press conference on Tuesday, and the topic of Lattimore’s status came up.

So how did Loomis react when asked whether he was confident Lattimore would be on the roster this year?

“Yeah,” Loomis said, but when asked if he’d have responded with anything but a positive confirmation, he replied with “What do you think?”

When asked a follow-up question, Loomis tried to tamp it down, saying that...

Props to Alvin Kamara for making the most of his offseason. The New Orleans Saints running back headlined “The Catch” sport fishing tournament in Florida last week, teaming up with Miami Dolphins star Raheem Mostert to win the whole thing. They competed with other NFL players including Kamara’s former Saints teammates Trey Hendrickson and Jameis Winston.

One of the highlights of the fishing rodeo came when Kamara and two of his teammates hooked three sailfish at the same time. Kamara described it as “Chaos. Organized chaos … It was great. Lot of moving parts, but I think we did it...

The New Orleans Saints still have needs heading into the 2024 NFL Draft, but many can still be solved. Since Dennis Allen took over as head coach, the Saints showed the ability to identify the biggest need on the team and draft a solution. This was shown in 2022 with the picks of Trevor Penning and Chris Olave and the draft picks of Bryan Bresee and Isaiah Foskey in 2023. Tackle and wide receiver were by far the biggest need in 2022, and defensive tackle and edge rusher were the biggest need in 2023. Although some of these players have not fully worked out, the team still drafted what was...

The Atlanta Falcons are facing serious tampering allegations with the possibility of losing draft picks, per ESPN reporter Adam Schefter. The tampering allegations stem from the Falcons’ signing of former free-agent Kirk Cousins.

Both the Philadelphia Eagles and the Falcons are currently under investigation for tampering. According to Schefter, the discipline for both teams is “likely to involve draft picks.” The league could announce disciplinary actions as early as this week.

Atlanta currently holds the eighth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. They have a total of eight draft picks...

The 2024 NFL draft is just days away and the New Orleans Saints have yet to make a trade with their second-round selection. That means, as of now, they will drafting at No. 45 in the second round. It hasn’t been a spot that the Saints have drafted at in recent history, but it is a spot that has seen a lot of successful players enter the NFL.

The best player to come from No. 45 overall in recent history is undoubtedly running back Derrick Henry. Henry was a four-time Pro Bowler with the Tennessee Titans before signing with the Baltimore Ravens this offseason.

Here is every player to come from the No. 45 spot in the last 20 years:
