New Orleans Saints defensive end Cameron Jordan has no plans on retirement, but when he does decide to hang up the cleats, he will likely have a future in media.
As of right now, he currently has his own podcast and is regularly a guest on shows. Many athletes have made the transition from playing the game to covering the game, and it feels like an easy transition for Jordan.
His latest foray into media will be a part of CBS Sports’ The NFL Today on Sunday as an analyst, alongside former Atlanta Falcons quarterback, Matt Ryan. CBS Sports announced Jordan’s appearance with an old video of Jordan sneaking up on Matt Ryan before a Saints game.
Ryan and Jordan will be on the same team Sunday, as they break down the wild-card round of the NFL playoffs.
There’s a heavy emphasis placed on daily sports shows employing primarily former athletes, but pregame shows are also a very common route. At this point in his career, every appearance on these type of shows feels like a potential look into the future.
