Two former Georgia athletes made several important life decisions in an extraordinarily short time frame recently.
Ryland Goede was, until recently, a tight end for the Georgia Bulldogs.
Goede was a four-star recruit out of high school several years ago, seeing mostly reserve action for the Bulldogs.
Despite his fairly impressive recruiting ranking, he never caught a pass during his time in Athens. So it’s not surprising that he’d be announcing a transfer to Mississippi State.
But though Goede was never successful on the field, he apparently found much more success off the field.

The Saints and Broncos have agreed to compensation in return for Super Bowl-winning head coach Sean Payton, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Sean Payton is the Denver Broncos choice to be their next head coach. While the sides have a basic understanding on a contract, the negotiations on that continue, a source told OutKick on Tuesday.
There are still final details to iron out on the deal but it is believed Payton will be one of the highest paid coaches in the NFL, if not the highest, the source said.
This has been two-pronged negotiation for the Broncos.
Sean Payton is close to becoming the Broncos next head coach.

Ryans is now the head coach of the team he once played for
The Houston Texans have their next head coach, and it is a familiar face.
DeMeco Ryans, most recently the defensive coordinator for the San Francisco 49ers, will be the next head coach of the Texans. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Ryans and the team reached agreement on a six-year deal.
The agreement reunited Ryans with the team he once played for. Ryans was drafted by the Texans in the second round of the 2006 NFL Draft, the 33rd player selected overall.

Speculation around the Packers quarterback’s future continues to swirl.
With speculation swirling over Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers’s next move, a familiar name from his recent past is resurfacing.
That would be Jets offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett, who served as Rodgers’s offensive coordinator for three seasons in Green Bay. It was under Hackett’s tutelage that Rodgers rejuvenated his career, winning MVP awards in 2020 and ’21.
Rodgers had nothing but praise for his former offensive coordinator while speaking on the Pat McAfee show on Tuesday.

The Broncos and Saints have reportedly reached an agreement to trade head coach Sean Payton to Denver.

The Texans agreed to a six-year deal to hire 49ers defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans as the team’s new head coach Tuesday, sources told ESPN.

The Broncos and the Saints are finalizing a trade for head coach Sean Payton
One of the biggest head-coaching dominoes in the NFL appears ready to fall. According to a new report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Denver Broncos are closing in on a deal with the New Orleans Saints that would open the door for Sean Payton to become the next head coach of the Broncos.
Payton last coached during the 2021 season, then stepped away for this past year.

The former Texans linebacker is reuniting with the franchise to become its next coach.
The Texans are hiring 49ers defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans to be the franchise’s new coach on a six-year deal, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.  
Ryans steps into a Houston organization that finished this past season 3-13-1. The former star of the Texans defense as a player will now look to repair a team that hasn’t had a winning record since 2019 (10–6).  
Houston fired coach Lovie Smith just hours after beating the Colts 32–31 to finish out the 2022 season.

Denver is in agreement with New Orleans to hire former Super Bowl-winning Saints coach Sean Payton in exchange for draft compensation.
