The New Orleans Saints finally ended Dennis Allen's failed head coaching reign, firing their embattled head coach after a 2-7 record this season and an 18-25 record overall across three seasons. The Saints named Darren Rizzi their interim head coach for the rest of the season, but it is expected the team will seek to hire a new head coach from outside the organization during the offseason.

Bookies.com veteran oddsmaker Adam Thompson has created hypothetical NFL odds for who will be the next head coach of the New Orleans Saints for the 2025 season.

New Orleans Saints Head Coaching Prospect

As the New Orleans Saints prepare for a coaching change, several top candidates have emerged.

Joe Brady, Bills OC (+500)

Brady has done a terrific job as the Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator and is expected to interview for head coaching jobs during the offseason, including potentially with the Saints.

Adam Stenavich, Packers OC (+650)

Stenavich has been one of the top offensive coordinators for several years now with the Green Bay Packers and makes sense as a head coaching candidate for the Saints, or any time looking to hire a new head coach this offseason.

Drew Brees, former Saints QB (+700)

Brees is one of the greatest Saints players of all time and if he decides to jump into NFL coaching, he becomes a natural head coaching candidate for the Saints, despite minimal coaching experience in his own right.

Mike McCarthy, Cowboys HC (+750)

McCarthy is currently the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys, but his contract is up at the end of this season and he figures to be let go since the Cowboys likely won’t make the playoffs this season. If that’s the case, the Saints may come calling for McCarthy.

Bobby Slowik, Texans OC (+800)

Slowik is one of the top head coaching prospects in the NFL right now after doing such a great job as the offensive coordinator with the Houston Texans, and the Saints could give him a call in the offseason, though there figures to be plenty of competition for his services.

Mike Vrabel, former Titans HC (+850)

Vrabel was fired by the Tennessee Titans last year despite a 54-45 record over six seasons, and no team hired him during the offseason. The Saints may make a call to Vrabel to hire him this offseason.

Brian Flores, Vikings DC (+1000)

Flores has been a head coach in the NFL for the Miami Dolphins and is currently doing a terrific job as the defensive coordinator for the Minnesota Vikings. He deserves a second chance at being a head coach in the NFL, and New Orleans would be a nice fit.

Doug Pederson, Jaguars HC (+1200)

Pederson is having a tough year in Jacksonville, and if the Jaguars fire their head coach as has been rumored, the Saints could consider him for their head coaching role.

Ben Johnson, Lions OC (+1400)

Johnson is doing amazing things as the Detroit Lions offensive coordinator and he is a prime head coaching candidate for any NFL team needing a new leader, including the Saints.

Kevin Stefanski, Browns HC (+1500)

Stefanski is the head coach of the Cleveland Browns right now, but if he gets let go after a down year, the Saints could attempt to lure him to New Orleans.

Nick Saban, for Alabama/LSU HC (+1800)

Saban formerly coached the Miami Dolphins in the NFL and was the longtime head coach of the Alabama Crimson Tide in college football before retiring. If he does want to take another run at NFL head coaching, perhaps Saban could take a run at him.

Bill Belichick, former Patriots HC (+2000)

Belichick is one of the greatest head coaches in NFL history but didn’t get a job after being let go by the New England Patriots last year. The Saints could give Belichick a phone call, although there are strong rumors he may head to the Dallas Cowboys.
