The New Orleans Saints are adding another major analytical presence to their front office. According to Seth Walder, the Saints hired Scott Kuhn as their Director of Football Administration. Kuhn has 23 years of experience in NFL front offices. He's worked in analytics and scouting at both the college and pro level in his career. 

Kuhn comes to the Saints after spending the past 16 seasons as a member of the player personnel staff of the Minnesota Vikings. In the 2022 campaign, he was promoted to director of football quantitative methods/pro scout, where he oversaw research analysis and project development, while also continuing in a pro scout role, which he held since first joining the organization in 2007. From 2016-21, he served as director of analytics/pro scout. — New Orleans Saints team website

Kuhn's plethora of experience will be useful for New Orleans. He will work alongside the likes of the well-known Khai Harley to analyze the best routes for attaining talent in every portion of the NFL, including the draft and free agency. His proven track record is a great grab for the Saints.
