I have the game recorded. Looks like 4th quarter with 3:21 left. Before I go searching has anyone else looked?

The guy with the headset is standing on the sidelines at every home game, stationed just outside the opponent's designated bench area, which is marked between the 30-yard lines. Whenever the ball is deep in one end of the field, the HC will go to the far end of the bench area to get as close to the action as possible. When those screen caps were taken, the Saints had the ball at their own 15-yard line. So inevitably, that guy was going to be in the shot, no matter which team won or lost. That's where he does his job, which is to coordinate the video screen operations with the TV timeouts. He has to be down on the field next to a network person who communicates with the field officials and with him.

Thanks for the explanation. So it wasn’t photoshopped. But it was a dude doing his job. No spygate 2. Just them looking for a excuse why they got spanked on national TV.

Or maybe during the course of his job, he overheard Payton calling a play that involved Brees throwing the ball into the ground several feet behind his receiver. ;)

well, I am sure that the NFL will have a full-blown investigation where Dallas will lose draft picks for this OBVIOUS infraction of some fat guy wearing a Cowboy shirt on the Saints sideline - throw in the obvious infraction at the Salvation Army bucket (of course, no word on the 'aints getting penalized when they "abused" it too) and I am sure we won't draft again until 2021...

If the Cowboys were trying to cheat or spy on the other team, they would not do it with a person wearing Cowboys gear and wearing a headset.

Florio probably knows that the guy is there for all games but Florio wants to get clicks.
