After stepping out of bounds with personal attacks on many involved with the Broncos’ struggles last season, Sean Payton made his best attempt at damage control on Friday.
Despite having experience both in front of and behind the microphone in his career, Payton admitted that it’s an experience that he will learn from in the future.
“I had one of those moments where I still had my Fox hat and not my coaching hat,” said a contrite Payton. “Here I am the veteran stepping in it and it was a learning experience for me and it was a mistake. Obviously I need a little bit more filter.”
