Saints offensive assistant set to be quarterbacks coach at the Senior Bowl

The New Orleans Saints will have another coach at the Senior Bowl, this time it is offensive assistant Jordan Traylor, who will be handling the quarterback coach position for the National Team. With this, he will gain the opportunity to with with Oregon Ducks quarterback Dillon Gabriel, Wilfrid Laurier quarterback Taylor Elgersma, and Louisville quarterback Tyler Shough.

One of the most intriguing parts about this is that Elgersma will be the second player ever from a USports school (the governing body of Canadian university sports) to attend the Senior Bowl, with the only other one being wide receiver Tyrone Williams back in 1992. Williams would go on to be drafted in the ninth round of the 1992 NFL draft, and would bounce around the CFL and NFL for about six seasons, ultimately being on rosters that won two Super Bowls (XXVII and XXVIII) also winning a Grey Cup with Doug Flutie at the helm in 1996.

With that said, this will be a great opportunity for Traylor to scout him among other quarterbacks in the game. Traylor has spent four seasons as a part of the Saints coaching staff, and six seasons with the team. He has been a defensive, offensive, and scouting assistant at different points throughout his tenure with the Saints, and has had the chance to work with Arkansas and Texas as well at the collegiate level.
