The New Orleans Saints have made a significant move to solidify their coaching staff for the future. Offensive Coordinator Klint Kubiak has signed a contract extension that will keep him with the team through the 2025 NFL season. This announcement comes as a critical moment in the Saints’ ongoing efforts to improve their offense and maintain continuity under head coach Dennis Allen.
Kubiak, 36, joined the Saints in 2023 after a successful tenure as the Minnesota Vikings’ offensive coordinator. His expertise in developing quarterbacks and designing innovative offensive schemes was seen as a major asset for New Orleans, particularly after the departure of legendary quarterback Drew Brees and the transition to a new era at the position. In his first year with the Saints, Kubiak helped guide the offense to increased efficiency, especially in the passing game, and worked closely with young quarterback Derek Carr, who joined the Saints in free agency.
The contract extension reflects the Saints’ confidence in Kubiak’s abilities and their commitment to his vision for the offense. Under his guidance, the Saints have been able to adapt to the changing landscape of the NFL, blending traditional concepts with modern, up-tempo strategies that suit their personnel. Kubiak’s approach has already paid dividends in the development of the team’s young skill players and has laid the groundwork for future growth.
“This is a great opportunity for me to continue to work with such a talented coaching staff and a great group of players,” Kubiak said in a statement. “I’m excited about the direction we’re headed as a team, and I’m looking forward to the challenges ahead as we continue to build on what we’ve started.”
The extension is also a sign of the Saints’ belief in stability. With the NFC South often being a highly competitive division, New Orleans is eager to keep its coaching staff intact and build upon the progress made in recent seasons. Kubiak’s familiarity with offensive systems, combined with his deep understanding of the modern NFL, is seen as a key asset in keeping the team competitive.
As Kubiak looks ahead to the 2025 season, expectations will be high for continued improvement on the offensive side of the ball. With a solidified coaching staff and a growing roster, the Saints are positioned to remain a playoff contender for the foreseeable future, with Klint Kubiak playing a central role in their offensive success.
