What is the true story behind the movie Home Team (2022)?

Home Team is an upcoming movie directed by Adam Sandler and produced by Kevin James. The movie is loosely based on the real-life story of the former NFL head coach, Sean Payton, who was suspended from the league in 2012 for a year due to the “Bountygate” scandal. The scandal involved the New Orleans Saints, the team which Payton coached, offering bounties for injuring opposing players.

The movie follows Payton (played by Sandler) as he coaches his son’s sixth-grade football team during his suspension. Payton uses the opportunity to reconnect with his family and rediscover his passion for coaching.
