Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen has landed a Super Bowl gig.
Not as cool as playing in it, but good work for a guy eyeing a broadcast career in his post-football life.
Olsen will serve as a guest analyst on ESPN’s Postseason NFL Countdown show on Super Bowl Sunday in Minneapolis, according to a network spokesman. Olsen will help break down the New England Patriots-Philadelphia Eagles matchup during the four-hour pre-game show (10 a.m. to 2 p.m.) from U.S. Bank Stadium, with Suzy Kolber, Steve Young and several ESPN reporters.
This is Olsen’s second broadcasting cameo in Minneapolis in recent months.
