Sean Payton’s Quip to Reporter Goes Viral as Broncos Expect Dre Greenlaw to Play vs. Bills

The moment circulated as a lighthearted clip that also signaled Greenlaw’s return to practice after a hamstring strain.

Overview

  • At a Broncos press conference, Sean Payton responded to reporter Luca Evans’ question about Dre Greenlaw “attacking downhill” by asking what the reporter knew about the run game.
  • Ari Meirov shared video of the exchange on X, where it quickly spread and drew online criticism of Payton’s tone from some fans and media voices.
  • Evans later said it was a funny moment and that he and Payton joked about it afterward, downplaying any hostility in the interaction.
  • Greenlaw has returned to practice after missing the final two regular-season games with a hamstring injury, and he is expected to play, with Payton saying it is good to have him healthy.
  • Denver hosts Buffalo in the AFC Divisional Round, and coverage notes Greenlaw’s downhill style could be important against the Bills’ designed quarterback runs and interior rushing.
