"KELLEN MOORE THOUGHT he was always meant to be on a football sideline. He toddled after his father Tom Moore as a child, and watched as his dad coached the Prosser High School football team to four state titles in Washington from 1992 until he stepped down as head coach in 2009. As Kellen got older, he was given roles: tee boy, ball boy, water boy and then he eventually became a player."
"Moore, 37, will be the youngest active head coach in the NFL when the Saints host the Arizona Cardinals ( 1 p.m. ET, CBS) on Sunday. He was hired on Feb. 11, 2025, two days after the offensive coordinator led the Philadelphia Eagles to a 40-22 Super Bowl win against the Kansas City Chiefs in New Orleans. That result has fueled hope that Moore, through his coaching style and playcalling, can revamp the once prolific Saints offense."
Kellen Moore grew up in Prosser, Washington, following his father, Tom Moore, who coached Prosser High School to four state titles from 1992 until 2009. Moore performed roles as tee boy, ball boy and water boy before becoming a player, absorbing his father’s organization and efficient practice methods. Moore cited his father as the foundation of his coaching approach. He was hired as the New Orleans Saints head coach on Feb. 11, 2025, at age 37, becoming the youngest active NFL head coach. His hiring followed his role as offensive coordinator for the Philadelphia Eagles’ Super Bowl win, raising expectations that his style and playcalling can revitalize the Saints offense.
