Dennis Allen enters first season as Saints' coach.

The intrigue surrounding the 2022 New Orleans Saints is such that watching events unfold during training camp will provide enough drama to keep everyone on alert. There's enough newness, and enough change, to fuel curiosity as to what the team can be as it begins its quest to reclaim the NFC South Division crown.

#1. D.A. makes his case:
Coach Dennis Allen knows the culture and knows how things operate after having rejoined the franchise in 2015. But, as he said upon being named head coach this offseason, he's going to put his own spin on certain areas. We know he's going to continue to be the defensive play-caller, and there's good reason for that – New Orleans developed one of the best defenses in the league with Allen moving the chess pieces. The defensive players already know him, the offensive players will learn his personality better and ideally the transition to his leadership from Sean Payton's will be a smooth one. Allen is fiery and meticulous, and if his offense is as aggressive as his defense, training camp practices will be a fun prelude to the regular season.
