Galiano has been with the team since 2019, where he served as the Saints’ assistant special teams coordinator under Darren Rizzi. Last season, after Dennis Allen was let go and Rizzi moved into the interim head coach position, Galiano took over special team coordinator duties.

That move will now become permanent as new head coach Kellen Moore has started putting together his staff and building toward the future.
