After Denver’s first day of training camp Friday morning, Payton expressed remorse for comments made to USA TODAY on how the Broncos organization handled last season, former head coach Nathaniel Hackett’s work in Denver and the New York Jets seeking the spotlight.
“It was a learning experience for me,” he said. “It was a mistake, and obviously, I need a little more restraint. I regret that.”
