Sean Payton, the former Super Bowl-winning coach for the New Orleans Saints, is working to apply the finishing touches to a deal with the Broncos to succeed the fired Nathaniel Hackett as their coach.
Payton was reported to have been seeking a contract worth at least $20 million per season. The Broncos also must provide draft choices to the Saints. Payton remained under contract with New Orleans after stepping down as the team’s coach following the 2021 season.
Some issues arose during Payton’s interview with the team, according to a person familiar with the situation. Payton emerged with concerns about a potential power struggle with one member of the franchise’s ownership, according to that person. But Payton denied such an issue, writing on Twitter that he’d had a “great visit” with the Broncos, and “ownership was fantastic.
The Broncos have the NFL’s wealthiest owners after a group led by Walmart heir Rob Walton purchased the team last year from the Pat Bowlen Trust for a league-record $4.65 billion.
