The New Orleans Saints have announced two coaching staff moves Saturday. Bret Ingalls is now the offensive line coach after directing the team’s running backs since 2009 and Dan Roushar has been hired as running backs coach.

A coaching veteran of 31 years, Ingalls spent the last four years coaching the Saints running backs, with the running game achieving a top ten ranking in two of those campaigns. Prior to coming to New Orleans, Ingalls spent 26 years coaching in the college ranks, with extensive experience along the offensive line. Before his Saints stint, he served on the staff at Northwestern from 2006-08, where he was running game coordinator/offensive line coach his final season.

In 2008, Ingalls’ Northwestern offensive line started five new players for the majority of the season without extensive experience, but paved the way for the Wildcats to average 141.8 rushing yards per contest and allowed the second-fewest sacks in the Big Ten. Their play helped the Wildcats win nine games for only the fifth time in school history. In 2007, Ingalls’ offensive line blocked for the Big Ten’s top-rated passing attack.
