"I can tell. It comes through the TV."
"I'm not dead yet. But I am having a great time. I appreciate it, you guys."
Fox is “contemplating” the arrangement for Olsen, per a source.
A low-scoring Eagles-Saints game boosted focus on the announcers, and Greg Olsen's work there drew commendation.
Greg Olsen was diplomatic once again after Week 1, saying he just wants to be a good teammate to the man who replaced him, Tom Brady.
"Olsen just put on a masterclass in Fox's No. 2 booth for Pittsburgh-Atlanta."
"He's got a great sixth sense for how to balance all those different things."
"They flashed Greg Olsen in front of me. Little did I know how great Greg Olsen was going to be, and he’s fantastic. And they flashed Tom Brady in front of me."
"It was only because he was retired that we threw that Hail Mary."
"We’re building something special"
"That’s not something I would have been opposed to by any stretch."
"He's been nothing but respectful and nothing but professional through all of this, which has been amazing, and I've tried to be that in return to him."
Joe Davis and Greg Olsen's pre-existing chemistry and positive attitude suggest they're ready to excel as Fox's No. 2 NFL broadcast team.
Madden NFL 25 announces two additional new commentary teams featuring diverse voices from across the sports world.
"There's more need and space to fill in more football lingo and talk than there is in a constantly flowing basketball game where you could kind of fake it a little bit more."
"It's hard to transition into that world. It's hard to find your voice. It's hard to find the right opportunities."
Cowherd believes Brady will work even harder knowing he has to replace a star broadcaster like Olsen.
"Can I get back there one day? Absolutely."
"You've got to call the game that happens, and you have to throw away whatever your anticipations are entering the game."
"I look forward to sharing the network with him. I look forward to competing against him."
Greg Olsen won the Sports Emmy for best event analyst right before his network, Fox Sports, casts him aside for Tom Brady.
"He was just kind of picking my brain about the prep and the industry and what to expect and whatnot."
Greg Olsen won't work the No. 1 Fox broadcast crew this season after proving his worth. But, as they say: When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.
