Before the Denver Broncos started training camp last week, head coach Sean Payton defended Russell Wilson and the quarterback’s struggles in 2022 by suggesting last season “might have been one of the worst coaching jobs in the history of the NFL.”
Payton, of course, was referring to ex-Broncos coach Nathaniel Hackett, who went 4-11 last year before being fired with two games remaining. Hackett now serves as an offensive coordinator for the New York Jets and head coach Robert Saleh and offensive lineman Billy Turner quickly stood up for him after Payton’s harsh remarks.
