New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton acknowledged that a contract extension for himself is on the team's to-do list, Bradley Handwerger of WWLTV.comp reports.
"I think there’s a time for that," Payton said on Tuesday. "It’s not necessarily March or April, but it’s on the list. It’s something that when the time comes, I think I’d have a strong interest in going through that."
Payton has two remaining on an extension he signed in 2008, so there's no rush in getting a deal done. Payton cited his purchase of a $6 million home in the Dallas area for his family as fueling speculation about his long-term future in New Orleans.
"We’ve become a lot like players in timing of contracts," Payton said. "It’s not like next year in the last year. It’s two more years. I think the speculation maybe has arisen from our decision of our family to live in Dallas. I think the speculation arises from that more than anything else."
