The Denver Broncos gave coach Sean Payton a new five-year contract on Thursday, team owner and CEO Greg Penner announced.
“Sean Payton has led an impressive turnaround over the past three seasons, instilling a winning culture with high expectations,” Penner said in a statement. “I appreciate the close partnership he shares with George Paton along with the alignment and stability across our football operations.
“We’re thrilled for Sean to continue leading our team as head coach, building on our progress during such an exciting time for the Broncos.”
Payton had two years remaining on his existing deal before the new contract. The club also recently gave a new five-year deal to general manager George Paton. The coach and GM are now both signed through the 2030 NFL season.
The Broncos have 32 wins since Payton joined the team in 2023, tied for sixth-most in the NFL and third-most in the AFC. They have reached the playoffs in each of the last two years, including a trip to the AFC Championship game last season.
