Sean Payton says he regrets his comments about Nathaniel Hackett and the New York Jets - Mile High Report

Yesterday, USA Today’s Jarrett Bell dropped a bombshell article where Broncos head coach Sean Payton was very candid, honest, and blunt about Nathaniel Hackett, the previous regime, and the New York Jets.

Well, today, Payton met with the media for the first time since these comments were published and he expressed regret and said it was a mistake on his part. He explained he had his FOX/media hat on instead of his coaching hat on.

In that article, Payton made comments like “It might have been one of the worst coaching jobs in the history of the NFL” and “Everything I heard about last season, we’re doing the opposite”. He threw the previous regime under the bus by saying “the parents allowed it” when talking about the dysfunction within the building and then said the New York Jets will have the same fate as the 2022 Denver Broncos.

Now, a lot of what he said was likely true, but it was unprecedented for a current coach to throw another coach under the bus like that, especially with them still in the coaching ranks. Then, Payton throwing some people who are still part of this organization the way he did likely did not sit well within the building. His comments even got the attention of former Broncos offensive lineman Billy Turner who is also a good friend of Nathaniel Hackett. He called the Broncos head coach a “f*cking bum” in a post on Instagram.

Payton said he will reach out to the New York Jets “at the right time” to make things right with them and handle it “the right way”. He did quip that these remarks did add some spice to the Broncos and Jets matchup later in the season.

As for his comments that threw some members of the organization under the bus which included General Manager George Paton, he told NFL Network’s James Palmer that Paton was one of the big attractions. He continued by saying he and Paton are close and that his point was that blame could be spread across the board not just on one person.

I still have no issues with what Payton said and what he said was the truth. I understand there is a way to go about these things, but at the end of the day, he told no lies and was supporting his quarterback in the process. It was repeated multiple times that Sean Payton does not say or do things without a purpose so we shall see if that is the case here or if he truly just forgot he was a head coach of an NFL team for a little bit.
