In the last two years, Greg Olsen carved out his niche as a prominent member of fox’s No.1 broadcast team. Channeling his knack for broadcasting, his broadcast drew nearly 57 million viewers on Sunday, Jan 28. With this, it became the fourth-most watched in the FOX’s history of non-Super Bowl telecast. 

However, the recent shake-up at FOX Sports witnessed the NFL GOAT, Tom Brady stepping into the broadcasting shoes that once belonged to the NFL tight-end. Instead of succumbing to the change, Olsen remains resolute in his quest to be a top-tier broadcaster.      

Brady’s entry challenged Olsen’s landscape

Olsen added a unique dimension to the broadcasting experience through his articulate communication of analytical and general football concepts backed up by his enthusiasm. However, despite his successful stint, the former Carolina Panthers tight end might be heading toward an offseason demotion. The reason is the looming entry of Brady into broadcasting. In this regard during his recent appearance at the Dan Patrick Show, Olsen gave insight into the situation he is in, “I am at this stage of my career of where I want to go and I think all we understand the delicate situation that we’re in right. I understand when Tom Brady’s looming over your shoulder it’s the biggest news in sports. I get it, he’s Tom Brady. He’s someone I’ve respected for damn 20 years”.
