Best quote from Sanders' 2020 season:

"I think there are no really 'me' guys in the locker room. I think it's a lot of team guys. And I have been enjoying this locker room, we have a lot of different personalities. We've got some people that are quiet, and then when to talk to them you see that they're not so quiet. It's just, they stick to themselves. And then, you've got Cam Jordan who walks up to my locker every day and we're laughing and rolling, stomach hurting and telling jokes. And I got Craig Robertson next to me. And so, I've been having a good time with this entire locker room. I think that as far as personality-based, I don't know if they choose a certain personality. But, one thing I do know, all of this starts with Sean Payton and his personality. We've got a head coach who loves ball (and) loves calling plays. Legendary coach, in my opinion. But at the same time, he keeps it light as well, like every now and then, he'll come in and he'll crack a joke and he'll have everybody laughing and everybody rolling. And Sean (Payton), he works hard, but he also likes to have a good time too. So, I think that's just the energy. And not only that, that's the energy of this city as well. I've been fortunate enough to play in Pittsburgh, that's the blue collar city, right, like work hard. And then I went to Denver, and that was laid back, right, just chill. And then I went to San Fran and that's the tech capital. Now I am here in New Orleans, and I see the difference of the entire city affecting the team. And like I said, our head coach is doing the Griddy with a pair of Jordan 11s on. That is New Orleans, right? And, it just goes to show that, you know, how cool of a coach Sean Payton is. I can speak on that guy all day, but we all know what he's about."
