Here’s some good news for the New Orleans Saints: KPRC 2 Houston’s Aaron Wilson first reported that quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator Ronald Curry is expected to remain with the Saints in 2023 after interviewing with both the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Denver Broncos for their offensive coordinator vacancies. NewOrleans.Football’s Nick Underhill confirmed that Curry will stay in town.
Curry, 43, is a coach on the rise who started his Saints career working with receivers before moving to quarterbacks, and now he’s responsible for managing multiple position groups in fine-tuning the passing attack. He called plays in a preseason game last summer and should continue to see his role expand in New Orleans.
Hopefully, anyway. Pete Carmichael struggled to maximize the talent available to him last year and some fresh insight is needed offensively. It’s tough to make waves with a backup quarterback and without three of your top five receivers (Michael Thomas, Jarvis Landry, and Deonte Harty missed most of the season with injuries) but Curry’s background as a position coach and familiarity with his players should be a resource the Saints draw from more heavily moving forward.
