Former Philadelphia Eagles head coach Doug Pederson interviewed for the New Orleans Saints' coaching vacancy Sunday, a source told Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
New Orleans reportedly has interviews scheduled with ex-Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores on Monday, Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn on Wednesday, and current Saints defensive coordinator Dennis Allen on Wednesday or Thursday.
Pederson previously interviewed with the Chicago Bears and Jacksonville Jaguars. The Bears opted to hire Indianapolis Colts defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus, while the Jaguars have yet to sign a new head coach.
The 54-year-old Pederson spent the 2021 season out of the NFL after being fired by the Eagles last January.
He led Philadelphia to a Super Bowl title in the 2017 season and three winning campaigns in five years. But Pederson was dismissed amid a deteriorating relationship with team ownership and the front office, as well as a 4-11-1 finish in 2020.
