Saints coach Sean Payton said Tuesday that he "absolutely" wants a contract extension.
He added that he has already spoken to general manager Mickey Loomis about it.
Payton, who has two years remaining on his current contract, said he couldn't put a timeline on when his extension might be done.
"There's a time for that, and it's not necessarily March or April, but it's on the list," Payton said. "It's something that when the time comes, I think I would have a strong interest in going through that."
