MOBILE, Ala. — Sean Payton confirmed the changes he has made on his coaching staff since the end of the regular season, which were already known. But he did end the mystery surrounding one situation.
When the Saints hired Dan Campbell to serve as the tight ends coach, it was widely reported he would also serve as the assistant head coach. This raised questions about Joe Vitt’s role with the team since he was previously given the title of assistant head coach.
It turns out nothing will change at all. Payton said Tuesday that Vitt and Campbell will both be assistant head coaches.
