The New Orleans Saints have officially completed a virtual interview with Joe Brady for their head coaching position. Brady, who gained national recognition as the offensive coordinator for LSU during their 2019 championship season, has been a prominent name in NFL coaching circles. Following his time at LSU, Brady joined the Carolina Panthers as their offensive coordinator, where he was tasked with shaping their offensive strategy, particularly during a season in which they underwent significant changes. His offensive-minded approach has drawn attention, and many believe his innovative playcalling and ability to develop young talent make him a strong candidate for a top NFL coaching position.
The Saints’ search for a new head coach comes after the departure of Sean Payton, who had led the team for over 15 years. New Orleans is looking for someone who can carry on the team’s competitive legacy and build a strong offensive system, and Brady’s experience at the college level, along with his brief but impactful tenure in the NFL, makes him a promising candidate.
Meanwhile, another former Saints coach, Jack Del Rio, has made headlines of his own. The former NFL linebacker and assistant coach, who previously worked with the Saints, has recently taken on the role of head coach for the European League of Football (ELF). Del Rio, who had a successful coaching career in the NFL, made it clear that he could not pass up the opportunity to lead a team in the growing ELF. His decision to move to Europe reflects the expanding global reach of American football as more opportunities arise in leagues outside the NFL.
Del Rio’s new role marks a new chapter in his career, and it further underscores the diverse paths that former NFL coaches can take post-career.
