ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler: Saints Head Coach opening is a coveted job among people I’ve spoken to; Mike McCarthy could have interest
Jets, Raiders, Jags are organizational messes. I think Caleb’s ceiling is Russell Wilson but the Bears are a good option. Pats are the gem of jobs.
Loomis will go to bat for his HC and give them full control. His reticence to fire DA, willingness to turnover assistant coaching staff, and signing of Carr shows those things. Saints are a mid-tier option this year.
ESPN+ article blurb from this morning. I bolded a comment that I found interesting:
Any updates on the Jets, Saints and Bears openings?
Fowler: The Saints are taking a low-key approach, with sources telling me that, as of Wednesday afternoon, their candidate list hadn't grown past Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn, Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore, the Bills' Brady, Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver, current interim coach Darren Rizzi, Giants offensive coordinator Mike Kafka and Vrabel. I expect that list to expand, but the Saints were using these seven as a launching point.
This is a coveted job among people I've spoken to recently. I've heard that Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy could have some interest, so it wouldn't shock if the Saints try to talk to him should he be free to do so (McCarthy's contract with the Cowboys expires Tuesday). Glenn still seems like the favorite, but he could have options. Glenn and Brady both have New Orleans connectivity as former Saints staffers.
Graziano: Agreed that Glenn seems like the favorite in New Orleans. He's extremely well regarded in that building and very well known because he previously worked there.
