Earlier today, the New Orleans Saints made a stunning announcement that head coach Kellen Moore has withdrawn from all coaching activities after testing positive for drugs. The news has sent shockwaves through the NFL community, with fans and analysts alike reacting to the unexpected development.
Sources close to the team have confirmed that Moore, who took over as the Saints’ head coach earlier this season, voluntarily stepped down while awaiting further evaluation. The Saints organization is reportedly conducting an internal investigation to assess the situation, with a focus on understanding the circumstances surrounding the positive test.
The NFL is also expected to step in, as the league’s substance abuse policy dictates that players and coaches who fail drug tests may face suspensions or other disciplinary actions.
At this time, the Saints have not named a temporary replacement for Moore, but reports indicate that offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael will step in as interim head coach during Moore’s absence.
More details are expected to emerge as the situation develops, and the team has asked for privacy during this difficult time. The New Orleans Saints organization has not yet commented on the type of drug involved or whether Moore has violated league policies beyond the positive test.
