Reports: Lions' Aaron Glenn to interview for Saints' job; Caldwell loses out in Chicago

After interviewing for the Denver Broncos' head-coaching vacancy that is going to Green Bay offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett, Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn is getting consideration from his former employer, the New Orleans Saints, according to multiple reports.

The Saints are in the market for new leadership after longtime coach Sean Payton decided to step down over the weekend. While early in the replacement process, the team is intending to interview defensive coordinator Dennis Allen, Tampa Bay offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich and Glenn for the opening.

Glenn finished his 15-year playing career with the Saints, spending the 2008 season with the team, prior to transitioning into coaching a few years later.
