Legendary NFL Quarterback Kurt Warner Lands Exciting Job<\/a> originally appeared on The Spun<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Hall of Fame quarterback<\/a> Kurt Warner has reportedly been tapped to lead an exciting new broadcast for the NFL this upcoming season.<\/p>\n

According to insider Andrew Marchand<\/a> at The Athletic, Warner will serve as the lead analyst for the league’s first ever YouTube live stream which will take place during Week 1’s season-opening game between the Kansas City Chiefs and LA Chargers in Brazil.<\/p>\n

Due to its lack of infrastructure in the live broadcasting space, the video sharing platform will also reportedly<\/a> pay NBC to assist in production for the event \u2014 as Amazon Prime did when it was kickstarting its “Thursday Night Football” broadcasts a few years ago.<\/p>\n

As big of a get as Warner is though, he’s only the first piece. According to Marchand, YouTube still doesn’t have a play-by-play voice locked down despite the game being roughly a month away.<\/p>\n

In a packed opening weekend all across the football<\/a> world, most of broadcasting’s biggest names are already tied up with other commitments.<\/p>\n

Not to mention that a lot of the bigger networks have been “reluctant” to let their talent hop on streams that aren’t under their own umbrella in this competitive age of engagement and attention.<\/p>\n

In addition to the Warner-led livestream, Marchand adds that YouTube\u00a0will also share alternative streams featuring some of the platform’s top creators and influencers where they’ll offer reactions and commentary of their own on the action.<\/p>\n

The NFL<\/a> season officially kicks off Thursday, Sept. 4 when the Eagles host the Cowboys on “Sunday Night Football” and Peacock before following that up with the Chiefs-Chargers YouTube game.<\/p>\n

Now it’s just a matter of finding out who will actually be sitting next to Kurt when the lights come on that Friday night in the league’s second straight Week 1 Sao Paulo game in that time slot.<\/p>\n
