Sean Payton details Saints' plans for 2020 draft amid coronavirus crisis

How are the New Orleans Saints responding to the coronavirus pandemic? Saints coach Sean Payton has experienced the infection more personally than most, having tested positive and self-isolating at home for two weeks before he received an update that he was in the clear on March 26. But the Saints organization is taking more thorough steps to protect its employees and their families, especially with the 2020 NFL Draft on the horizon.

Payton discussed the changes during a conference call with local media on Wednesday, including a move away from the team facility.

“Our meetings will take place and we’re kind of in a remote location,” Payton said.
