Shea Dixon tweets the negotiations are still underway. It may be simply that there is language in his Saints contract that needs to be satisfied and no blocking at all. I'm being optimistic here.
Can't argue with that, but it would be wise of Payton to make that stipulation or "gentlemen's agreement" before letting an assistant move around the state. Kind of petty if you ask me.
Maybe it’s Mickey Loomis and not Sean Payton who is the person holding up the deal. As GM he may be defending the contract to guard against any future situations.
Truth is we will likely never know for sure but it is the offseason so its fun to speculate as we wait. And wait. And wait....
There’s a solution to that, Sean. It’s called promotion. I remember he tried to tell Brady that he was making a mistake when he left for LSU.
To be fair, he admitted as much in a presser. It was actually pretty funny. Something to tune of "...so what do I know."
This DC search is ridiculous and now becoming comical. Now onto the third choice. Why do the Saints have such a problem with LSU?
