Per 24/7 Sports college football reporter Matt Zenitz, the Saints are promoting Offensive Assistant Jordan Traylor to assistant quarterbacks coach.
Traylor has been just wrapped up with fifth season with the team. He started as a scouting assistant for his first two season, moved to defensive assistant for the next two years and spent 2023 on the offensive side helping out with the tight ends group. Traylor will join new quarterbacks coach Andrew Janocko in working with Derek Carr and the rest of the position group.
