The pipeline of Washington quarterbacks becoming football analysts grew on Tuesday.
Amazon announced that former Commanders quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, who retired from football earlier this month, is joining Prime Video’s “Thursday Night Football” broadcast as an analyst. Other Washington quarterbacks to hop in the studio as football analysts after their playing days include Robert Griffin III (ESPN), Alex Smith (ESPN) and Mark Sanchez (FOX).
“Thursday Night Football” will be on Amazon in 2022, and Fitzpatrick is joining former players Richard Sherman and Tony Gonzalez on the Jeff Bezos-owned desk for the broadcast’s pregame, halftime and postgame coverage.
