Per a report from ESPN insider Adam Schefter, San Francisco 49ers assistant head coach/defense Brandon Staley is a leading candidate to take over as the New Orleans Saints‘ new defensive coordinator alongside new Saints head coach Kellen Moore.
Reports broke on Tuesday morning that former Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore had agreed to become the next head coach of the Saints after the Eagles captured the Super Bowl LIX title over the Kansas City Chiefs, 40-22, in New Orleans.
Staley spent the 2024 season with the 49ers after three seasons as the Los Angeles Chargers‘ head coach from 2021-23.

With Staley helping oversee San Francisco’s defensive operations, the 49ers owned the NFL’s No. 8 total defense (317.4 yards per game), its No. 5 passing defense (192.8 yards per game), its No. 18 rushing defense (124.6 yards per game).
San Francisco ranked 29th in scoring defense, surrendering 25.6 points per game. The 49ers’ offense takes some blame in that as San Francisco finished with the sixth-most giveaways in the 2024 season.
