The drop-outs left Moore and Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver as the Saints' top candidates, and Moore has more coordinator experience despite being so young. He's spent six seasons as an offensive coordinator between three teams, regularly garnering head coaching interest over the years.

The New Orleans Saints apparently have a new front-runner for their head coach opening. According to CBS Sports NFL insider Jonathan Jones, Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore is "in the driver's seat" for the role after a strong in-person interview on Monday.

With the New Orleans Saints sitting as the only NFL team with a current vacancy at head coach, they may need to wait a bit longer to fill the position. According to ESPN's Dan Graziano, the Saints flew to Philadelphia to interview Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore in-person Monday night after they interviewed him virtually before the divisional round.
