No more hugs. No more kid gloves. No more coddling. If I’m Sean Payton, I treat Big Russ like every other stiff in the offensive meeting rooms. Think you deserve to start? Prove it. Think you deserve to skip some preseason starts? Prove it. Think you deserve your own office? Prove it.
Privileges are earned here, man. Not promised.
