Saints fire run-game coordinator T.J. Paganetti after bye

New Orleans fired run-game coordinator T.J. Paganetti coming out of the Week 8 bye, a staff change amid a persistent rushing problem. The Saints had 18 yards on 17 carries against Pittsburgh and rank 28th in rushing, though Travis Etienne’s absence since Week 3 is relevant context; the effect of the change is not yet known.
