Sources: Saints to Interview Lions Defensive Coordinator Aaron Glenn for Coaching Vacancy

After head coach Sean Payton announced Tuesday that he was stepping down as head coach after 16 seasons with the Saints, the franchise had to act quickly to find its next head coach. We're now beginning to hear some names regarding who the Saints are targeting.

The Saints have requested to interview Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn for their open head coaching job, sources told the MMQB's Albert Breer.

Despite the struggles of the Lions in Dan Campbell’s first season as the franchise’s head coach, Glenn has been lauded for his efforts as the defensive coordinator.
