NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo reiterated Rapoport’s reporting, noting that Payton will most likely stay put in his broadcasting role this year.
“We’ve kinda been talking all along that there is a possibility, whether it be 50–50 or even greater than 50–50, that Sean Payton would go back to Fox for one more year because it’s not like he’s that desperate to get back into coaching that he’s just going to take any job,” Garafolo said. “It was going to have to be the right situation on both sides on the table, and it does not feel like that’s where we are right now. … We’re hearing consistently that it’s the opposite of that.”
