On Monday, it was reported that Texas defensive passing game coordinator and secondary coach Terry Joseph will be hired by the New Orleans Saints. Sarkisian's attempt at keeping Joseph with a promotion this offseason was unsuccessful.

Joseph is now the second Longhorns assistant to leave for the NFL alongside running backs coach Tashard Choice, who left to accept a job with the Detroit Lions. The Longhorns also lost safeties Blake Gideon, who accepted a job as the Georgia Tech defensive coordinator.

Texas Longhorns defensive backs coach Terry Joseph is set to join the New Orleans Saints as a coaching staff member.
