Denver Broncos’ head coach search momentum suddenly seems to have been arrested as Sean Payton, the market’s most coveted candidate, leaves the team behind amid 11 hours of interest from other suitors bottom.
The Arizona Cardinals are in Payton. Carolina Panthers owner David his tepper is not to be dissuaded. And suddenly, after conflicting reports that Peyton is slated for a second interview with the Broncos, it no longer feels like CEO Greg Penner’s arrows are pointing in that direction.
Despite making billions of dollars and co-owning one of the most famous franchises in NFL history, Penner may feel helpless in this situation. FOXSportsWhat radio host Colin Cowherd reported on Tuesday is true.during the segment of herdCowherd reports that the Broncos have already decided that Payton is their man, as is Mile High City’s $245 million quarterback.

So if the NFL’s richest owner has already decided to buy Payton, why hasn’t the hiring been announced? Cowherd said Denver could offer Payton more than $25 million a year. said to be sexual. This will reset the head coach market to pay the highest ever payouts.
According to Cowherd, Payton is unsure about the Broncos. Specifically, Peyton seesaws working with Wilson.
For more context, see Cowherd’s clip above. But Cliffnote’s version looks like this: teeth washed, as an anonymous NFL executive recently said athleticand that possibility, coupled with having to compete twice a year with Patrick Mahomes and Justin Herbert each in the division, and an overall lack of draft capital (particularly with New York to earn his rights). After being traded to the Orleans Saints), Peyton limps.

After speaking directly to Payton, it was Cowherd who reported how impressed the former Saints head coach was with the Broncos’ new group of owners, especially majority owner Rob Walton. It was Cowherd who reported that Payton would be happy to coach the veteran quarterback, as well as not being held accountable as the anonymous executive said.
But now Cowherd is singing another song.All of Strong Points Cowherd spoke about last week regarding the Broncos vacancies, and Peyton suddenly Cons.

Suddenly, the whole Cowherd enthusiasm reversed, as if we were living upside down.
Both Cowherd and Payton FOXSportsbecause that’s what the radio host is suddenly hearing from the man himself.

As of this writing, the Broncos have not officially scheduled a second interview with Peyton. We’ll see how Penner deals with being toyed with in the media by Peyton, and how badly he wants to sign this deal.
