NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reports on Tuesday morning that the New Orleans Saints will interview Baltimore Ravens WR coach Greg Lewis for their vacant offensive coordinator position.

The Saints fired longtime offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael two weeks ago. WR coach Kodi Burns and senior offensive assistant Bob Bicknell were also terminated, while RB coach Joel Thomas left to accept the same position with the New York Giants.

Since those moves, the Saints have now interviewed 10 candidates for offensive coordinator.

• Ronald Curry (Saints QB coach)

• Dan Pitcher (Bengals QB coach)

• Zac Robinson (Rams QB coach)

• Shane Waldron (Seahawks OC)

• Jerrod Johnson (Texans QB coach)

• Klint Kubiak (49ers passing coordinator)

• Brian Griese (49ers QB coach)

• Mike Sullivan (Steelers QB coach)

• Brian Johnson (Eagles OC)

Pitcher has since been promoted to Cincinnati's offensive coordinator. Robinson was hired as offensive coordinator for the Atlanta Falcons. Waldron was hired as offensive coordinator for the Chicago Bears.

Greg Lewis has just concluded his first year as receivers coach with Baltimore. He was a wideout for the Philadelphia Eagles, New England Patriots, and Minnesota Vikings between 2003 and 2010.

Lewis, 43, got his first NFL coaching job with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2014 as WR coach. He was actually with the New Orleans Saints in 2015 as an offensive assistant. The Philadelphia Eagles brought him on as WR coach for one season in 2016.

Lewis was an offensive assistant on Andy Reid's Kansas City Chiefs staff from 2017 to 2022. Under offensive coordinator Todd Monken and Lewis this season, Baltimore's passing attack was a far more explosive unit than they'd been in year's past with QB Lamar Jackson.
