Did Alvin Kamara expose embarrassing secret about Sean Payton?
Alvin Kamara may have made an embarrassing revelation about his head coach this week.
The New Orleans Saints star jokingly told reporters on Friday that coach Sean Payton might have “a little foot fetish.”

“Shoes, that’s his thing,” said Kamara of Payton. “Like foot, anything to do with shoes, pedicure, like, that’s his thing. I don’t know. He might got a little foot fetish.”
For reference, Kamara was speaking in the context of cleats, per Katherine Terrell of The Athletic. Payton is a known stickler for making sure that his players wear the right kinds of cleats so that they do not slip on particular turfs. Kamara said that he thinks his cleats contributed to his hamstring injury, which has kept the Pro Bowler out of the Saints’ last four games.
The receipts do not lie about Payton either. He once treated his team to pedicures after they wore particular cleats for a 2017 game in Green Bay.

Hey, Payton has a right to be into what he is into. Who are we to judge?
If this is indeed Payton’s thing, as Kamara indicated, he would not be the first NFL head coach to have such unique interests.
