New Orleans Saints defensive end Cameron Jordan tried out for a new job this weekend, patrolling the sidelines of Saturday’s XFL game between the New York Guardians and Dallas Renegades. It’s the latest media appearance Jordan has made, following previous brushes with NFL Network’s  “Good Morning Football” program and SiriusXM’s “The Rich Eisen Show.”

This time, though, Jordan wasn’t the one being interviewed. It was his responsibility to hold the microphone and ask pertinent questions of players as they left the field, doing his best to make for good TV.

And Jordan was a natural in the role, later joking that, “I channeled my inner WDSU team.” He chopped it up with players from both teams after big on-field moments, showing an easy comfort in relating their experiences to the cameras.

While it appears he’ll have an easy transition from his days on the NFL field to a media role — in whatever medium it may end up landing — Jordan made it clear that he doesn’t intend to hang his cleats up any time soon.

Here are some of his highlights in those instant-reaction interviews:
