Happy Friday, and welcome to the Saints Insider newsletter for Jan. 20, 2023. The Saints answered one of the biggest questions of the offseason Thursday. When the season ended, many wondered if the team would keep Pete Carmichael as offensive coordinator. The answer to that is yes, sources confirmed to The Times-Picayune Thursday. Beat writer Luke Johnson writes about the Saints’ decision to keep Carmichael. While Carmichael is staying, the Saints did make one move with its coaching staff. Dan Roushar, a long-time assistant with the team who spent the past two seasons as tight ends coach and run game coordinator, was let go. Jeff Duncan gives you the details on Roushar’s departure. Saints defensive end Cameron Jordan got some good news Thursday. Jordan was fined in December for faking in an injury in a game against Tampa Bay. Jordan appealed the ruling and won that appeal on Thursday. Here is more on Jordan winning his appeal. What’s the latest in the Sean Payton sweepstakes? Well, a Thursday report says the Carolina Panthers are willing to give Payton almost anything he wants to accept the job. That's all for today.
