MOBILE, Ala. (WPMI) The weather was picture perfect Tuesday as the players continued to prepare for this weekend's Senior Bowl.

The North and South teams both held practice Tuesday. But big news is out of the NFL concerning the New Orleans Saints. Head Coach Sean Payton has been reinstated by the league.

The Saints finished 7-9, and because of that they were selected 15th in April's draft. Most of the Saints staff is in Mobile this week evaluating the Senior Bowl players.

Payton's reinstatement comes one day after he and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell met in New Orleans. He missed the entire 2012 season as a result of the NFL's investigation in to the team's bounty program.

More importantly, Payton understands and accepts the requirements as a head coach. Payton will be in Mobile Wednesday, but Tuesday he was at South's practice.

He's scheduled to meet the media Wednesday morning.
