Schlereth said it marked the first time he has been asked to speak to a professional football team. He has done it before for baseball teams, but he was thrilled when Payton called him and asked him if he would like to fly to New Orleans and expand his speaking résumé.

"Absolutely, I was honored, " he said. "I didn't expect it, but when they asked me to come speak to this team absolutely I was honored. It was very exciting to get on a plane and come down here."
Schlereth has carved out a niche as an opinionated and entertaining voice on television and radio, but that career was of little interest to Payton. Rather, it was Schlereth's role as a member of the Denver Broncos on teams that were Super Bowl champions in 1998 and 1999 that earned the invite.
