Last year, New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson impressed with his performance. Johnson reeled in 42 receptions for 508 yards and 7 touchdowns. Looking ahead to 2023 the restricted free agent may be get a big boost in his production if the Saints land their target at tight ends coach, Clancy Barone.
Barone has been working with various teams with the tight end and offensive line groups since 2004. His biggest achievement? He’s the only tight ends coach in NFL history to coach up four different Pro Bowler at the position with four separate teams. Those tight ends; Alge Crumpler of the Atlanta Falcons, Antonio Gates of the then San Diego Chargers, Julius Thomas of the Denver Broncos and Minnesota Vikings pass-catcher Kyle Rudolph, are all some of the best to play their positions. Barbie showed quickly his ability to maximize that talent.
