Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore was set to interview with the New Orleans Saints on Saturday for their head coaching job, NFL Network reported.

It would be Moore's third interview in two days, as well as the Saints' third interview in the same time period.

Moore, 35, met with the Dallas Cowboys and Jacksonville Jaguars on Friday, per reports.

Moore was the offensive coordinator for the Cowboys (2019-22) and Los Angeles Chargers (2023) before moving to the Eagles this season.

In his first season with Philadelphia, Moore helped the Eagles to a No. 2 seed in the NFC playoffs behind a rushing attack that ranked second in the league with 179.3 yards per game.


Moore was a former star quarterback at Boise State.

He isn't the only candidate in New Orleans.

On Friday, the Saints interviewed Darren Rizzi in person. Rizzi, 54, took over as interim coach of the Saints following the firing of Dennis Allen and was 3-5 in eight games.

Before his promotion, he was assistant head coach and special teams coordinator for the Saints, whom he joined in 2018 following 10 seasons with the Miami Dolphins.

New Orleans also interviewed Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator Joe Brady virtually on Friday. Brady, 35, began his NFL coaching career in New Orleans as an offensive assistant from 2017-18, moved on to a season at LSU and then became the offensive coordinator of the Carolina Panthers (2020-21) before being hired by Buffalo.
