Sources: Saints hiring Eagles OC Kellen Moore as head coach

METAIRIE, La. -- Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore has agreed to become coach of the New Orleans Saints, sources told ESPN on Tuesday.

The Saints made the move official two days after Moore and the Eagles won Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans. Moore left New Orleans to fly home with the team but will return to make the move official.

The Eagles defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22 and quarterback Jalen Hurts was named Super Bowl MVP. Immediately after the Super Bowl win, Eagles coach Nick Sirianni jokingly pleaded with Moore to return to the team for another season.
