he NFL on Fox has made a couple of very noteworthy changes to their broadcast lineup for the 2015 season, one being editorial, and the other being enforced by off-screen behavior.
As we first told you back in June, Fox was strongly considering breaking up one of the longest tenured announce teams calling NFL games today in Kenny Albert, Daryl Johnston, and Tony Siragusa. The trio had fallen down the pecking order slightly at Fox from their #2 position (calling one playoff game every year) being surpassed by the team of Kevin Burkhardt and John Lynch. Now it’s official – Kenny, Moose, and Goose will be no more. Siragusa moves to a new team of Thom Brennaman and Charles Davis, who has moved over to the NFL from his college football duties with Gus Johnson. Coincidentally, it was Brennaman and Davis who called Fox’s first go-round with college football in the mid-2000s with the BCS.
The second noteworthy change involvessuspended analyst Donovan McNabb. This summer, it was projected that McNabb would be making a move up the broadcasting ranks. That was at least until his second DUI arrest. With McNabb on the sidelines, Fox will employ a who’s who of analysts including returnees Kirk Morrison and Brady Quinn and newbies Chris Cooley and… *rubs eyes*… Matt Millen!
