Alvin Kamara Publicly Backs Darren Rizzi for Saints Head Coach Role

The Saints running back voiced his support for interim head coach Darren Rizzi, though the team is actively considering other candidates.

Alvin Kamara posted on X endorsing Darren Rizzi, the Saints' interim head coach, for the permanent position.
Rizzi stepped in as interim head coach mid-season after the Saints fired Dennis Allen following a 2-7 start, improving the team to a 3-5 record under his leadership.
The Saints have paused in-person interviews for other head coach candidates, including Mike Kafka and Anthony Weaver, due to severe weather in New Orleans.
Despite Kamara's endorsement, reports suggest the Saints are exploring multiple options and may not retain Rizzi as head coach.
Rizzi has been with the Saints since 2019, serving as special teams coordinator and assistant head coach before taking on the interim role.
