Sean Payton has remained steadfast on that he is not looking at coaching during the 2022 season, but that does not mean teams have been listening.
During an appearance on The Dan Patrick Show, Payton revealed that two teams have contacted him through backchannels. While said he wouldn’t reveal who the teams were, he did confirm that it was not the Cowboys or Bears. On Thursday, Dallas reportedly told Mike McCarthy he would remain head coach, while Chicago hired Colts DC Matt Eberflus.
“I’m not looking at that path right now,” Payton said.
