I honestly think Russ will do well in a broadcast role. Best of luck!
It’s God’s will
I think he would be great at that. The moment he stops playing, I’m all the way back on board, so this would be great.
He has done this multiple times over the years. I remember him all over the talk shows whenever the Hawks has a bye week.
Snore fest
I can’t imagine much worse than watching him kiss everyone’s ass on TV. No thanks
He’s a mumbler but I think he could do well with some practice. I wish him luck!
Russ 4.3 LLM must be getting good.
Go hawks.
Why do they always pick the players I want to hear from the least to have the largest voice as commentators?
I’m here for it. He has always been thoughtful, insightful and passionate. All the corny stuff he says will play really well in the booth.
He’s a really well spoken, smart guy with experience. If he can get some solid media training, he could have a long career in the booth.
Nerd russ is no more tho lol
I’ve got low confidence that Russ can be an engaging analyst. He’s got field IQ from playing forever, but tv analyst? I dunno. He’s got the personality and charisma of a glossy eyed overly smiling subway cutout.
Analysis should be interesting since he never got great at reading the defense
He’s gonna have unlimited comments
BROADCAST PARTNERS, LET’S RIDE
He’s made for this
Cue the corny football commentary
If Russ hasnt lost one thing, its his ability to talk. So I think he would be good at this!
Here’s hoping Amazon hires him for TNF and makes him share a desk with Sherm
He was really good on the manning cast.
I think he would be pretty good at it
From Danger Russ to Broadcaster Russ
I hear the Vikings need a QB
God that would the most vanilla filler mumbo jumbo ever.
Nah I don’t want Russell broadcasting, I want Mr. Unliiiiiimiited
I would get tired of him talking through his smile
Mr. Unliiiiiiiiii…….
I think he’d be a pretty decent commentator.
Hope he does well. I have no doubt he’d love talking Xs and Os
I’d love to see it. Give me my favorite QB I’ve ever watched and not hoe ass Brady sometimes.
Be funny af if he starts shittin on Sean Payton lol
“CBS Broadcast let’s ride!”
This is going to be pure entertainment but not in the way they want it to be
is he gonna wear his helmet?
Nice to see some positive comments about Russ!
Which games is he covering?
Somehow he’s still gonna manage to throw an interception
I wonder if he will still dress in full pads and a helmet for this?
You can say what you want about Russ, but at least he’s not going to lose his mind and get stabbed multiple times by some senior citizen fighting for his life in a back alley somewhere.
Just don’t seat him in the middle. He can’t see those cameras.
I think that’d be a perfect job for him after football
I think Brady does a pretty good job. Won’t watch if Russell is on
He’ll be praising the lord all day!
He’s a solid verbal communicator when he isn’t spouting cheesy platitudes and stuttering. I could see this being a great route for him.
