Report: Saints planning second interviews with coaches still in the playoffs

With the news of highly coveted defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn accepting the New York Jets head coaching job, the New Orleans Saints will continue the search for their lead guy.

It was reported earlier in the week that coaches Mike McCarthy, Anthony Weaver, and Mike Kafka would be meeting with the team sometime this week after the recent snowstorm led to delay. Along with these candidates though, the team is also expected to meet for a second time with offensive coordinators Joe Brady and Kellen Moore.

A meeting with these two, will almost certainly come after this weekend’s games regardless of what happens with their respective teams. It does help that the Super Bowl is in New Orleans this year, which would make it a quick trip if either were to make it to the big game. If not, obviously the team will be able to fly either guy after a loss.

There is also the potential for more candidates to enter into the mix, possibly Commanders OC Kliff Kingsbury whom the team requested to interview a couple weeks ago. We’ll likely learn more about where these candidates stand in the next week or so when the weather permits travel and when playoff coaches become available.
