Saints coach Sean Payton has made clear his desire to join the media. He apparently will.

Via Katherine Terrell of TheAthletic.com, Payton said Tuesday that he’s likely taking a studio job with a network to be named later.

“I think so, I just don’t want to be the one that puts my foot in my mouth before the company does,” Payton said. “But it is. Soon. Probably a studio job.”

Payton has been linked most strongly to Fox and Amazon. He’s expected to return to coaching, which makes it easier from him to transition into — and out of — the job.
