The New Orleans Saints are turning to a familiar face as they prepare for their season finale and potential playoff run.
But, Darryl Tapp won't be helping the Saints pressure passers to stuff the run. Instead, the 12-year veteran defensive end will be assisting the coaching staff.
Tapp was at practice on Friday, and coach Sean Payton said the 33-year-old is around to work as a coaching intern. Tapp played for the Saints in 2016 and was with the team for training camp this year.
"I think more than anything sort of sorting out what he wants to do when his career is done," Payton said Friday.
