In a world constantly craving the thrill of college football, one familiar face is set to shake up the commentating desk again. You’ve heard his story: The Heisman winner of 2011 who charged into the NFL with brilliant speed only to be hampered by injuries. Now, Robert Griffin III (RG3) is gearing up to tackle a new challenge… stepping into the broadcast booth once more. But this time, with a different network and an, even richer blend of expertise and experience.

Fox Sports appears to be the place, where Griffin will once more share his football insights with viewers nationwide. And, who wouldn’t want to listen to a former quarterback who’s been through the ringer, rollercoaster of gridiron highs and lows? The airwaves are buzzing, with whispers of RG3 slipping into the shoes of Brock Huard and, in turn, pairing up with Jason Benetti.
