Payton not in play for 49ers: Saints head coach staying put
Jan 6, 2016 at 3:41 PM
• --
The Saints head coach is staying put. Payton said no team spoke with him directly, but suggested general manager Mickey Loomis tested the market. The 49ers are likely seeking an offensive-minded coach with previous head-coaching experience and Payton obviously qualified.

Jackson will also meet with the Dolphins and Browns on Sunday, which is a day after the Bengals' wild-card meeting against Pittsburgh.
