Sean Payton leaves door open for another Matt Patricia role in Denver

Denver Broncos coach Sean Payton isn’t ready to close the door on the possibility of former New England Patriots offensive play-caller Matt Patricia joining his staff.

Patricia interviewed for the vacant defensive coordinator role with the team before the job was ultimately won by Vance Joseph. The fact that Patricia even interviewed for the job came as a shock with most thinking he’d return to the Patriots as a senior advisor, following a disastrous attempt at coaching offense.

But it would seem as if he’s itching for an immediate return, and most notably, back on the defensive side of the ball.
