New Orleans Saints owner Gayle Benson is publicly defending General Manager Mickey Loomis despite the team's disappointing 2-8 record this season under head coach Kellen Moore, whom Loomis handpicked. While the roster was expected to be improved, the team's performance has led to criticism from the fanbase.
Benson expressed strong support for Loomis, calling any suggestion of firing him "ridiculous" and emphasizing his long tenure and respected status in the NFL. She acknowledged that not every decision works out but praised his accomplishments and current efforts to build the team, stating she holds him in high esteem.
Despite Benson's backing, the article suggests that if the Saints' poor performance continues, the upcoming offseason could bring significant changes to the franchise.
