Despite being on the verge of missing the playoffs for the fifth consecutive season, New Orleans Saints general manager Mickey Loomis still has the backing of ownership.
In an interview with Jeff Duncan of the New Orleans Times-Picayune, Saints owner Gayle Benson dismissed the “ridiculous” notion from fans that Loomis should be fired.
“It may not be what the fans want to hear, but as far as firing Mickey Loomis, that’s ridiculous,” Benson said. “(He) does a great job.”
Benson also noted she holds Loomis in “high esteem” and remains “pleased” with the job he is doing.
