Greg Olsen’s last trip to the Super Bowl came as a Carolina Panthers tight end in 2016, and didn’t go the way he probably wanted it to. But maybe his next one will.
As reported by New York Post sports media columnist Andrew Marchand on Thursday, Olsen has a deal in place to join the lead broadcast team for Fox Sports’ NFL programming. That, of course, places the ex-pass catcher in line to call Super Bowl LVII alongside play-by-play partner Kevin Burkhardt on Feb. 12, 2023.
Olsen and Burkhardt’s promotion will fill the void left behind by the previous No. 1 duo of Joe Buck and Troy Aikman, who are both off to call ESPN’s “Monday Night Football.”
