Charles Davis to replace Donovan McNabb on FOX broadcasts

FOX Sports suspended former NFL quarterback Donovan McNabb indefinitely after his recent arrest on DUI charges, his second in Arizona, and urged McNabb to use his time “as best he can to resolve his personal situation.”

McNabb’s departure opened up a spot on the network’s broadcasting roster for the coming NFL season and they’ve dipped into their college ranks for a replacement. Charles Davis, who was the network’s top college color commentator, has gotten the call to work with Thom Brennaman on games this fall. Davis has worked with the NFL Network on draft coverage and called NFL games for FOX in the past, which are a couple of the ways the transition will be made easier.
