Broncos K Wil Lutz reacts to Darren Rizzi being named interim coach of the Saints

The New Orleans Saints' firing of Dennis Allen and promotion of Darren Rizzi to interim head coach have prompted former and current players to comment on the move. One of those players was former Saints kicker Wil Lutz, who apparently worked with Rizzi for a long time and got to know him over the course of a few years. In a now-deleted tweet, Lutz said:

“📍Well deserved! Great leader and a coach who wants the boys to be successful.”

Lutz kept his first retweet of the action on his account, but the quote is no longer on his account. Regardless, he is clearly in favor of the Saints' promotion of Rizzi on Monday morning, which is a positive sign as he is one of the few people best suited to talk about the new interim coach. We'll see if Rizzi keeps his job beyond this season and makes a lasting impression, or if they look for another candidate instead.
