News circulated last month that Drew Brees and NBC were parting ways after just one season of Brees in the booth, but confirmation from NBC never came. However, Thursday night, a report from the NY Post surfaced that NBC is targeting former Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett as Brees’s replacement on Notre Dame games along with his current partner on USFL games on NBC, Notre Dame alum Jac Collinsworth.
According to the Post:
NBC is eyeing Jason Garrett, the former Cowboys head coach and Giants offensive coordinator, to replace Drew Brees as the game analyst on Notre Dame football and possibly on its prime time NFL pregame studio show, “Football Night in America,” The Post has learned.
