Kellen Moore hired as New Orleans Saints head coach

Kellen Moore is the Super Bowl champion offensive coordinator and the new head coach of the New Orleans Saints. Early Tuesday morning, a deal was being finalized, but it is now complete. 

In his one season with the Eagles, Moore led an explosive Philadelphia offense, which included Saquon Barkley becoming the ninth 2,000-yard rusher in NFL history.

Philadelphia racked up 459 yards of total offense and scored 55 points in a blowout win over Washington in the NFC Championship game. Following that performance, the Saints quickly secured a second interview with Moore before Super Bowl 59 in their host city.

After a historic career at Boise State, Moore served as the Cowboys’ backup quarterback from 2015 to 2017 before taking over as quarterbacks coach in 2018. Dallas promoted him to offensive coordinator the following season, and he held that job through 2022.

This season, Philadelphia finished eighth in total yards, seventh in points, and second in rushing yards, but it had a league-low in passing attempts.
