Underhill: Saints are interviewing probably 12 coaches (Tracker: officially 9 candidates) [Rapoport: Saints may add more]

Saints were Rooney rule compliant after Anthony Weaver and Aaron Glenn were interviewed.

Anthony Weaver was the Saints’ first interview.
The interviews doesn’t have to be in person to satisfy the Rooney rule.
Thanks for the insights. I thought the rule was amended in 2021 to require “in person” interviews. The below statement is from the NFL Football Operations:

“In 2021, the NFL approved changes requiring every team to interview at least two external minority candidates in person for open head coach and GM positions and at least two external minority candidates — in person or virtual — for a coordinator job.”
