Saints may lose Travis Jones, fifth coach of offseason

New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton is already looking to fill four spots on his coaching staff. That number may be five before the night is over.

According to a report by Jason La Canfora of CBSSports.com, Pete Carroll of the Seattle Seahawks is set to hire Saints assistant defensive line coach Travis Jones as his new defensive line coach. Jones would replace Todd Walsh, who left the Seahawks to join former Seattle assistant Gus Bradley's new staff with the Jaguars in Jacksonville.

Payton already lost offensive line coach Aaron Kromer to new head coach Marc Trestman's staff with the Chicago Bears and assistant special teams coach Mike Mallory to Bradley's staff in Jacksonville and he dismissed defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo and defensive backs coach Ken Flajole.
