Unpopular opinion here but I think he knows they destroyed the near future with all the crazy cap moves. He doesn’t want to ever pay the piper so he is “moving on”. Doesn’t mean he wasn’t a good coach. Just means what it means.

Thanks. I wasn't clear on when his contract was up.

There's a little ambiguity about Payton's contract. He signed a five year extension in 2019 on his contract which was set to expire at the end of 2021.

Saints, Sean Payton agree to five-year contract extension

September 15, 2019 1:03 pm CT

"The New Orleans Saints and head coach Sean Payton have agreed to terms on a five-year contract extension to keep him in town through the 2026 season, as first reported by Jay Glazer of FOX Sports. Payton previously inked a five-year extension in March 2016, which was set to expire in 2021."

These are the terms that Triplett and Duncan have been referring to all along through this. Rapaport is the only one mentioning 2024 as the end date and he based it on spotrac.com which doesn't record contract details for coaches in depth as they do players.

If the Cowboys want Payton and I'm GM, it's going to cost them Lamb, Diggs and a 2nd round pick at a bare minimum.
