Conflicting Reports Emerge on Saints' Interest in David Shaw for Head Coach Role

The New Orleans Saints are reportedly considering former Stanford coach David Shaw, though other sources dispute his candidacy.

The New Orleans Saints are searching for a new head coach after firing Dennis Allen midseason and finishing 5-12 in 2024.
NFL Network reports that David Shaw, a former Stanford head coach and current Denver Broncos executive, is set to interview for the position.
Other media outlets have contradicted this report, stating that Shaw may not be a candidate for the role.
Shaw, who led Stanford to eight bowl appearances and two Rose Bowl victories, has no prior NFL head coaching experience but has worked as an assistant coach in the league.
The Saints have also been linked to other candidates, including Matt Nagy, Mike Vrabel, Aaron Glenn, and current Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy.
