The Saints have a plan in place to interview Mike McCarthy at the end of this week, I’m told.
Kellen Moore today. Mike McCarthy next. Things are coming down the stretch.

For a few weeks now, the New Orleans Saints interest in former Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy has been increasingly evident, and it continues to look like he will end up as a finalist for the teams head coaching job. There had been many reports during this time that McCarthy would be interviewing with the team some time in the near future, but up until today nothing had been planned between the two parties.
On Monday, we found that McCarthy and the Saints do have a plan in place for an interview that will take place at the end of the week. There aren’t any details on where this meeting will take place but it’s likely that McCarthy will come down to New Orleans since he isn’t currently employed by another team at the moment.
The Saints are currently meeting with Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore in Philly just a day after his team’s blowout win against their division rival Commanders. The Saints’ interest in Moore seems to be very strong at the moment and a potential deal with the team could be in the cards as soon as tonight. We should get word sometime early this week on whether or not the team was able to strike a deal with the young OC.
