The final NFL head coaching vacancy has been filled.

On Tuesday, the New Orleans Saints named Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore as the franchise’s next head coach. The 36-year-old becomes the youngest head coach in the NFL.

“I am excited to join the New Orleans Saints and deeply appreciate the faith that Mrs. Benson and the entire Saints organization have placed in me,” Moore said in a statement.

“I look forward to embracing the challenges ahead and am eager to get started. I would also like to thank the Philadelphia Eagles for an incredible 2024 season. I’m excited to begin this new chapter.”

Moore spent one season overseeing the Eagles’ offense where he helped Philadelphia to an impressive 40-22 Super Bowl victory over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday at Caesars Superdome, home of the Saints.

Dallas ranked second in the NFL in total offense (391 yards per game), scoring offense (27.7 points per game) and touchdowns (210) during Moore’s tenure running the Cowboys’ offense.

Moore inherits a team that finished 5-12 and was tied for last in the NFC South division. The Saints have missed the postseason for four consecutive years.
