The Chicago Bears hired former Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson on Monday as their new head coach, and they have been busy trying to build out his new coaching staff. We may see a couple of former New Orleans Saints coaches within it.

New Orleans Saints star running back Alvin Kamara announced his head coaching endorsement. The Saints suffered their most losses in 19 years when going 5-12 in 2024. They fired Dennis Allen amid a seven-game losing streak and went 3-5 under interim head coach Darren Rizzi.

We have completed a in person interview with Darren Rizzi for our head coach position. — New Orleans Saints (@Saints) January 17, 2025 The New Orleans Saints announced Frid

The New Orleans Saints made ST coordinator Darren Rizzi the interim HC after firing former HC Dennis Allen in the middle of the season. New Orleans is in the midst of finding their full-time HC and star RB Alvin Kamara vouched for Rizzi to get the position.

If Darren Rizzi doesn't get the job with New Orleans, more opportunities are opening up for him through the NFL.

Another option just opened up for interim New Orleans Saints head coach Darren Rizzi. Sean Payton and the Denver Broncos fired their special teams coordinator Ben Kotwica, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo.

Alvin Kamara knows who he is casting his ballot for in the New Orleans Saints’ head coaching race. The Saints star running back Kamara took to his X page on Tuesday to issue a public endorsement for the team’s head coach vacancy.

The New Orleans Saints are undergoing plenty of changes this offseason. Losing one of their longest-tenured coaches may be added to the list after some recent NFL coaching updates. The interim Saints head coach from this season has interviewed for the full-time position in New Orleans.

The Broncos have fired special teams coordinator Ben Kotwica. One name to watch as a replacement is Saints interim head coach Darren Rizzi.
