Scott Hanson Negotiates Potential Exit from NFL RedZone

Scott Hanson, the long-time host of 'NFL RedZone,' is reportedly in negotiations with NBC for a new role that may involve covering both NFL games and the Olympics, following the expiration of his contract with NFL Media. His potential move comes amidst stalled discussions for him to return to NFL Network, as ESPN prepares to take control of NFL Media, which could affect his future there. NBC is interested in bringing back Hanson to host 'Gold Zone' for the upcoming Winter Olympics in 2026 and potentially the 2028 Summer Olympics. Fans have expressed their discontent over the possibility of losing Hanson from 'RedZone,' citing his significant impact on the show. If he departs, Andrew Siciliano is seen as a likely candidate to take over hosting duties, although ESPN might also consider its own talent for the role. Hanson's departure would mark a notable shift in NFL coverage for fans who have grown accustomed to his presence over the past 15 years.
