Sean Payton says he regrets comments about Broncos' horrible season: 'I needed a little bit more restraint'

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton recently made some zesty comments about the previous regime, blaming everyone for last year's disastrous 5-12 result — but specifically placing blame on former head coach Nathaniel Hackett.

A day after those comments were published by USA Today, Payton told the media that he regrets letting loose like that, and was still acting like a commentator on Fox instead of a coach.

"I had one of those moments where I still had my Fox hat on, and not my coaching hat on," Payton said.

Sean Payton said he maybe still had his FOX hat on during his interview with @JarrettBell and not his coaching hat.
