Last season, the New Orleans Saints hired Sterling Moore as Assistant Secondary Coach. With Kris Richard’s departure this offseason, the Saints parted ways with Moore in June. However, on Friday, the Saints hired Matt Giordano, a former NFL safety who played for the Saints in 2010, as their new Assistant Secondary Coach.
Giordano’s NFL career began in 2005, when he was drafted in the fourth round by Indianapolis. He played four seasons for the Colts, recording 88 tackles and one interception. He went on to play short spells in Green Bay, New Orleans, and Oakland before retiring in St. Louis in 2013. He appeared in nine games for the Saints in 2010 and joined Dennis Allen’s Oakland team in 2011.
Giordano was most recently the head football coach at Buchanan High School in California, where he led the Bears to an.800 winning %, three 10-win seasons, and back-to-back TRAC championships before leaving in 2021. For the first time in his coaching career, he will coach alongside his former NFL head coach, Dennis Allen.
