Detroit Lions celebrate at New Orleans Saints decide on next head coach

Sean Payton surprised everybody less than two weeks ago by announcing that he is stepping away as head coach of the New Orleans Saints.

So, who will replace Payton?

According to a report from Adam Schefter, the Saints have informed their former defensive coordinator Dennis Allen that they are hiring him as their next head coach.

This is great for the Detroit Lions as their defensive coordinator, Aaron Glenn was a candidate for the Saints head coach opening.

Nation, how happy are you to have Glenn (presumably) returning to the Lions for the 2022 season?
