The New Orleans Saints decided to make a coaching change on Monday when they fired their head coach Dennis Allen. After starting the season with 2 wins, the Saints have gone on to lose 7 straight and it was pretty obvious changes needed to be made. A familiar face will be serving as the Saints interim head coach as the team announced special teams coordinator, Darren Rizzi, will serve in that position. Rizzi was with the Miami Dolphins from 2010-2018 and special teams hasn’t been great since he left. Check out what the Dallas Cowboys, Denver Broncos, and other NFL teams are talking about in our roundup.
