The Broncos have found a new voice in Denver — the team reportedly just finalized a deal to make Super Bowl champion Sean Payton their next head coach.
Denver is expected to send multiple first and second-round draft picks to the Saints in exchange for Payton, who last coached in the NFL with New Orleans in 2021.
According to Ian Rapoport, the deal was agreed upon … paving the way for Payton to join the Broncos.
The Broncos recently fired head coach, Nathaniel Hackett … after the team suffered a humiliating defeat, 51-14, to the Rams on Christmas.
Hackett went 4-11 in his first season at the helm with the Broncos … and many believe he played a role in Russell Wilson‘s less than stellar season.
Wilson struggled offensively under Hackett — the former Seahawk threw for just 16 touchdowns, and completed only 60.5 percent of his passes.
Payton — who had interest from multiple teams — had been rumored to return to the NFL one day … and now, it appears he’s the guy who will try to get the Broncos back on track.
