Three years after signing a five-year contract with the Broncos, coach Sean Payton has a new five-year deal. On Thursday, he was asked by reporters how much longer he plans to coach.<\/p>\n
\u201cWell, five years,\u201d Payton said with a laugh. \u201cI think most importantly, aligning with [G.M.] George [Paton] and the working relationship. We enjoy coming to work together and going through this together. I think we think a lot alike. <\/p>\n
But, no, you guys heard that story a year ago in Vegas, the week prior Bo [Nix] asked me, \u2018How long?\u2019 And I was like, \u2018Shoot. Plenty of time. Eight years, nine years. Whatever.\u2019 Then we had one of those gameday moments and I said, \u2018Well right now it feels like one year.\u2019<\/p>\n
\u201cFair question, but I haven\u2019t really given any thought to the end game. I think I have a lot of juice left and enjoy what we\u2019re doing. Someone asked the other day, \u2018Do you enjoy it?\u2019 I think when that stops is when you have to look at it. I\u2019m not at that spot right now.\u201d<\/p>\n
Payton, now 62, first became an NFL head coach in 2006. And he has a chance to become the first coach to win a Super Bowl with two different teams.<\/p>\n
Others in the league who currently have a chance to do that include Steelers coach Mike McCarthy and Giants coach John Harbaugh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Three years after signing a five-year contract with the Broncos, coach Sean Payton has a new five-year deal.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":699343,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":["post-699342","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/699342","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=699342"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/699342\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/699343"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=699342"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=699342"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=699342"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
