Sean Payton said that he was not a part of reported contract talks between the Denver Broncos front office and quarterback Russell Wilson.
The Broncos head coach said on Friday that he is "not privy" to any conversations that took place earlier this season between the front office and Wilson regarding his contract, per the Denver Post's Parker Gabriel.
Wilson signed a 5-year, $242.6 million contract with the Broncos in 2022. Bleacher Report's Jordan Schultz reported Wednesday that the Broncos "threatened" Wilson with being benched if he did not remove his injury guarantees.
