Jeff Duncan on Sean Payton 2023

DA can’t go back to being DC, that isn’t how it works in any industry. You don’t fail at a promotion then return to your old job. Also, you would be waving bye to both Nielsen and Richard if you did that. Either Allen is HC of the Saints next year, or he’s no longer contracted to the franchise. Hopefully the latter.

Is there a rule that says the HC can’t be the DC the next year? No. This would be one of the most unique situations we’ve seen in the NFL and the Saints front office will be flexible if they need to. If you’re DA you either accept that you’re better off focusing all of your time on the defense or get an ego and risk not having a job at all in 2023 🤷‍♂️ I’m willing to bet he would gladly return back to DC if we were able to bring back SP
