The New Orleans Saints are still combing through their list of offensive coordinator candidates before hiring a new play caller for the 2024 season, and they’re interviewing a tenth option for the job, per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero: Baltimore Ravens wide receivers coach Greg Lewis.
Lewis, 43, started his NFL coaching career with the Saints as an offensive assistant in 2015, but he’s worked with some very successful coaches in the years since: he coached wide receivers on the Philadelphia Eagles in 2016 (under Doug Pederson) and the Kansas City Chiefs from 2017 to 2022 (under Andy Reid) before joining Todd Monken’s staff on the Ravens this season. Before that, he enjoyed an eight-year playing career with the Eagles, Minnesota Vikings, and New England Patriots.
So while he hasn’t called plays before, Lewis has been around the NFL a long time and he’s earned valuable experience in some successful systems. The Saints are considering all options before naming their new offensive coordinator to replace Pete Carmichael. We’ll just have to wait and see who emerges out in front.
