USATODAY-Inside Slant

TIDBIT: Payton's departure means a shuffle on the Cowboys coaching staff.
He is expected to take an assistant or two with him to New Orleans.

The early word is that Cowboys linebackers coach Gary Gibbs will be the defensive coordinator in New Orleans.

The Cowboys seemingly have been bracing for Gibbs' departure, as they supposedly have been in contact with Michigan defensive coordinator Jim Herrmann about becoming the linebackers coach.
