According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Brandon Staley is a frontrunner for the New Orleans Saints' defensive coordinator position after the hiring of Kellen Moore as head coach. Staley was previously the Los Angeles Chargers' head coach before joining the San Francisco 49ers, where he helped lead a defense that ranked eighth overall but faced challenges in surrendering points. The transition to the Saints marks an important move for Staley, who aims to improve the team's defensive performance.
Staley spent the 2024 season helping the 49ers achieve the NFL's No. 8 total defense but ranked 29th in scoring defense, allowing 25.6 points per game.
With Kellen Moore's arrival as head coach, it appears that Brandon Staley, who has a track record with defenses, is poised to become the Saints' next defensive coordinator.
