Saints make a surprising hire to their defensive coaching staff.

By Bob Rose - Athlon Sports

The New Orleans Saints have added a new defensive passing game coordinator to their coaching staff. Per reports, Terry Joseph will be hired for the role.

On Monday, Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network was the first to report that the Texas Longhorns assistant is leaving the program to become the defensive passing game coordinator for the Saints.

Terry Joseph is the first defensive assistant to be hired on new defensive coordinator Brandon Staley's staff under new Saints head coach Kellen Moore. This will be Joseph's first NFL coaching job.

Joseph, 51, has been the defensive passing game coordinator and secondary coach for the Texas Longhorns since 2021. The Longhorns have advanced to the College Football in each of the last two seasons. During the 2024 campaign, Texas allowed an average of just 173.8 passing yards per game defensively. ...

The New Orleans Saints have solidified a new hire to the special teams staff. According to Nick Underhill, the Saints have brought on Kyle Wilber as the new assistant special teams coordinator.

Wilber, 35, comes to New Orleans after two seasons as the Green Bay Packers’ special teams quality control coach. He spent most of his playing career with the Dallas Cowboys, where he was a teammate of new Saints head coach Kellen Moore. Wilber was selected in the fourth round of the 2012 NFL Draft by the Dallas Cowboys. Playing for the Cowboys from 2012 to 2017, in 2018, the Oakland Raiders signed...

One commonality on Kellen Moore’s coaching staff has been familiarity. You saw that with his connection to most of the coaches he hired on the offensive side of the ball. Defensive coordinator Brandon Staley was the head coach when Moore was with the Los Angeles Chargers. Moore is continuing to use those connections to fill out his staff.

The latest coach to be hired by the New Orleans Saints with a connection to Moore is Kyle Wilber. The New Orleans Times-Picayune’s Luke Johnson reported the Saints hired Wilber as a special teams assistant Monday morning, an upgrade from being the Green...

The Los Angeles Rams have given Matthew Stafford’s agent permission to speak with other teams, which may open the door for him to be traded. The New Orleans Saints don’t have the current supporting cast to make this move make sense, so they shouldn’t be expected to be involved in trade discussions for Stafford.

The news however does impact Saints quarterback Derek Carr. His future in New Orleans remains uncertain, and Kellen Moore didn’t provide any clarification on the matter in his introductory press conference.

Last week, the New Orleans Saints hired Brandon Staley as their next defensive coordinator and now the team can focus on filling out the rest of the defensive staff before the NFL Combine. Today, per Tom Pelissero, the Saints have hired Texas assistant head coach/defensive pass game coordinator Terry Joseph to become their next defensive pass game coordinator.

Joseph has coached since 1999 and wherever he has gone, the defensive back group has success. The Saints have talent in their DB room, and Joseph could be the perfect hire to develop some of these younger players.

Saints named a reasonable landing spot for recently-cut Patriots LB

The New Orleans Saints will need to stretch their limited money a long ways this offseason, which means they will likely be bargain hunting in free agency.

Anthony Palacios of Last Word on Sports recently listed the Saints as one of the top five landing spots for ex-New England Patriots linebacker Sione Takitaki. Takitaki makes sense as an option given that he will be cheap, but isn’t necessarily a needle-mover on defensive side of the ball.

The 29-year-old was a third round draft pick by the Cleveland Browns back in 2019. He spent his first five seasons there before signing a two-year...

The Brandon Staley conundrum: What makes the Saints DC so interesting?

Dennis Allen didn’t work as the New Orleans Saints head coach, but he was able to land a job with the Chicago Bears as their defensive coordinator in a matter of months. Matter of fact, Allen failed as the Oakland Raiders head coach becoming the Saints defensive coordinator.

The sentiment you can be a better coordinator than head coach is one Saints fans have heard since hiring Brandon Staley. Staley’s tenure as the leader of the Los Angeles Chargers didn’t go well.

This is where things get interesting. Staley comes to New Orleans with limited experience as a defensive coordinator. He...

Here’s a big move for Kellen Moore’s New Orleans Saints coaching staff. NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports that the Saints are hiring Texas Longhorns defensive pass game coordinator Terry Joseph for the same role under Brandon Staley; Joseph has also coached defensive backs at Texas, so expect him to play a key role in rebuilding the secondary. Nola.com’s Luke Johnson confirmed the news of Joseph’s addition.

Joseph, a 51-year old New Orleans native, has been coaching at the college level for a long time. But before that he started his coaching career at Archbishop Shaw High School, his...

The 2024 season was a turbulent one for the New Orleans Saints receiving corps to say the least. The season started with Chris Olave and Rashid Shaheed being the top two options, but neither player made it past Week 9 before suffering a season ending injury. Prior to the injuries, Olave was having another solid season, catching 32 passes for 400 yards in 8 games, (which still wound up being tops among wide receivers for the Saints in 2024) but Shaheed was in the midst of a breakout year.

He gained 73+ yards in 4 of 6 games and also caught three touchdowns while averaging 17.5 yards per...

The New Orleans Saints have selected all three of their coordinator positions, wrapping things up by hiring Brandon Staley as their defensive coordinator. They had plenty of options when it came to making a choice, but ultimately they went with the one who Kellen Moore worked with in 2023 and had some head coaching experience (albeit not great experience).

However, there were other options being considered, and after the hire was made, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reported that they had considered Colorado Buffaloes defensive coordinator Robert Livingston for the position.

The 2025 NFL Draft is only a little ways away now, but with free agency and the NFL Scouting Combine between now and then, there are plenty of things to discuss before that point. With the New Orleans Saints having a relatively strong presence at the Senior Bowl and other events, there have been steady reports coming out regarding which prospects they have met with.

In a recent article from The Draft Network, Justin Melo interviewed Minnesota-Duluth interior offensive lineman Aiden Williams, who discussed the interest he has received around the league.
