He was the former head coach of the New Orleans Saints of the National Football League. He attended Indiana University of Pennsylvania, and was selected in the second round of the 1979 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills. He was a linebacker for the Buffalo Bills until 1985, and played with the New York Jets in 1987. In 2005 he admitted to using steroids for a brief time during his playing days. [1]
He was named head coach of the New Orleans Saints in January, 2000. That season, he guided the Saints to their second NFC West title and the first playoff victory in team history as they defeated the St. Louis Rams, before falling to the Minnesota Vikings the following week. As a result of the team's turnaround, Haslett was named NFL Coach of the Year Award in 2000. However, the Saints were unable to duplicate the success of that season under the remainder of Haslett's tenure, finishing at 7-9, 9-7, 8-8, and 8-8 the next four years, and missing the playoffs all four years. In 2005, Haslett's sixth year with the Saints, the team stumbled to a 3-13 record after Hurricane Katrina forced the team to temporarily relocate their operations to San Antonio and play three of their home games there (in the Alamodome), four in Baton Rouge at LSU's Tiger Stadium, and one at Giants Stadium in New Jersey against the New York Giants. Haslett was fired on January 2, 2006, due to the team's disappointing performance over the previous five years. He was hired as defensive coordinator for the St. Louis Rams.
