Broncos Granted Permission To Interview Sean Payton
2 years agoThe Saints granted the Broncos permission to interview their former head coach, Sean Payton. The 59-year-old remains under contract with New Orleans, so compensation is expected, which is rumored to be at least a first-round pick. However, Denver is reportedly willing to meet the demand. Payton has an impressive resume, amassing a lifetime head coaching record of 152-89, including a Super Bowl victory back in 2010. Undoubtedly, adding Payton would be an upgrade from Nathaniel Hackett, who was fired on December 26 after leading the club to a disappointing 4-11 record under his watch. It would also be good news for Russell Wilson, who had arguably the worst season of his career.
