Suspended NFL Leader Sean Payton Will Coach Again…His Son’s Football Team

Sean Payton will coach a team again this year; only not in the National Football League, but rather his son’s team.

Payton surmises to utilize his suspension from the NFL in spending time with his family, especially with his 12-year-old son, Connor. The suspended controversial coach of the NFL New Orleans Saints will, accordingly, spend his year-long suspension coaching his own son's football team.

Payton’s son, Connor, made the news last year for taking the same vested interest as his father did.  He wanted the Saints to pick up Heisman Trophy winner Mark Ingram first, and was openly disappointed when the team took Cameron Jordan before they picked Ingram at 28.

The suspended coach will have plenty of time explaining the team's decision over the next year. Payton was suspended for his role in the bounty scandal that has marred the NFL's offseason.  His suspension started on April 16 and was expected to extend for a year.

Let’s just keep or fingers crossed that as Payton teaches the strongest points of football to his son's team, he would leave out the part about paying teammates to injure opponents.
