METAIRIE, La. — Saints coach Sean Payton said on Wednesday he's remaining with New Orleans, ending speculation that he could be on the move after consecutive 7-9 seasons.
Payton has been with the Saints for a decade and coming off his first consecutive losing seasons.
"I don't envision myself ever coaching for any other clubs," Payton said.
"I know it appeared there was a looming decision, but I think this is really me saying again ... here I am and nothing's changing and I plan on finishing my career here ... I'll be here as long as they'll have me.
