Dennis Allen Expects To Return In 2024

New Orleans Saints head coach Dennis Allen told reporters on Monday that he expects to return in 2024. Allen also believes there is no "fracture" in the locker room following the controversial conclusion to the team's 48-17 rout of the division-rival Atlanta Falcons in Week 18, which saw backup quarterback Jameis Winston call an audible for a rushing play to Jamaal Williams that ran up the score late. Despite one of the league's most favorable strengths of schedule entering the year, the 9-8 Saints missed the playoffs. Allen will enter 2024 with a mediocre 16-18 record during his two seasons in the Big Easy, but the squad did win four of their final five games of the 2023 campaign to close out the year on a positive note. After being unable to win three consecutive games at any point this season, New Orleans will seek more consistency with starting signal-caller Derek Carr figuring to be at the helm again next year.
