Darren Rizzi Steps in as Interim Coach
With Allen out, the Saints appointed special teams coordinator Darren Rizzi, 54, as the interim head coach for the remainder of the season. Rizzi, who is stepping into the role for the first time with the Saints, is determined to tackle the challenge head-on.
“This is not a day for celebration,” Rizzi commented. “This is a tough day. At the same time, there’s only one way to fight through this.”
Rizzi is optimistic. He describes his journey from walk-on tight end at Rhode Island to undrafted free agent with the Philadelphia Eagles. And eventually landing his first head coaching role with Division II New Haven.
“Literally, we’re going to reevaluate everything,” Rizzi stated, acknowledging his commitment to revitalizing the Saints’ program.
Drawing inspiration from his mentor, two-time Super Bowl champion Bill Parcells, Rizzi emphasized a full reset. “You’re going to reevaluate everybody, everything, staff, the coaches, the players,” he said.
