As the Saints revealed multiple official hirings on Wednesday, six more offensive staff hires are now official. The main participants have long been known to us, but only Klint Kubiak’s relocation was made public. The new coaches and their titles for 2024 are listed here.
Former Bears player Andrew Janocko will be joining Kubiak. A week after Kubiak was connected to the Saints, his name surfaced. Ronald Curry would be replaced as the quarterbacks coach by him. Janocko has ties to both Kirk Cousins and Justin Fields from their time in Minnesota, and he has previously worked with Fields.
The squad welcomes back highly experienced football coach John Benton as the new offensive line coach. Benton spent time in San Francisco (2017–2020) before joining the Jets (2021–2022) as the offensive line coach and run game coordinator. He therefore has prior expertise with a Kyle Shanahan system.
Keith Williams, a former assistant wide receivers coach for the Baltimore Ravens, joins the mix. Tyreek Hill and Davante Adams are two receivers with whom Williams has had firsthand experience, while “Coach Dubb” had previously worked with Derek Carr while they were both at Fresno State.
Rick Dennison is a longtime Chargers employee with a close relationship to the Kubiak family, but Derrick Foster joined the team in 2021 after spending 2018–2020 with the Iowa Hawkeyes. In 2021, he was most recently employed by the Vikings as a senior offensive advisor.
