Rumors are just rumors. Notice the "report" didn't quote Payton at all. It just mentioned some "unnamed source". No doubt writers are fishing for stories this time of year. Someone may have asked Payton if he'd consider returning to coaching. In fact, I would be shocked if he hasn't heard that numerous times. What would you expect him to say? "Sure. Eventually." How about with the Dolphins, Chargers, or Cowboys? "Who knows? Maybe some other team when I'm ready." Is there anything you would be looking for if you did decide to return to coaching? "Sure. Warm weather. I'd like a roster that could content, and I'd certainly like control over the roster."
