Former NFL quarterback Robert Griffin III has made a nice career for himself following his success in the NFL. For the past year, RG3 has used his knowledge and love for the game of football to help him mold a career in sports broadcasting with ESPN. Griffin’s hard work has earned him a promotion set to begin this fall.
According to ESPN,
For the 2022 NFL Season, ESPN’s Monday Night Countdown will add former first-round pick Robert Griffin III, joining two other former first-round picks, Booger McFarland, and Pro Football Hall of Famer and two-time League MVP Steve Young as the weekly show’s main analysts. Monday Night Countdown will welcome back Suzy Kolber, a well-regarded NFL voice on ESPN for nearly 30 years, for her sixth year as the host of the show alongside senior NFL insider Adam Schefter who will bring fans the latest news. Features reporter Michelle Beisner-Buck will also be back to add in-depth storytelling and interviews to the show’s repertoire.
When the regular season gets underway, Monday Night Countdown (6 p.m. ET) will once again be onsite for most Monday Night Football games, beginning with the Week 1 matchup between the Seattle Seahawks and Denver Broncos (Sept. 12).
Since joining ESPN in August 2021, Griffin has become a mainstay in ESPN’s coverage of both the NFL and college football.
In addition to his Monday Night Countdown work this fall, the Heisman Trophy winner will return to the college football broadcast booth for the second year, working alongside Mark Jones and Quint Kessenich. The eight-year NFL veteran will also make appearances on additional studio shows during the week and contribute to signature events – the College Football Playoff, Super Bowl week, the NFL Draft and other major events.
