The Plum High School grad and former NFL Punter will be a color analyst for ESPN's Thursday Night College Football coverage this upcoming season.
"Ladies and gentlemen... I'm the luckiest dude on earth. Thursday nights are about to be a GREAT time on @espn with @Hasselbeck, @adamamin, and @MollyAMcGrath. We're just getting started beautiful people..."

"For our brand: Pat McAfee, who considered a return to the NFL, will contribute to ESPN this season as a color analyst on Thursday night college football primetime games, as well as make regular appearances on Get Up. McAfee and Matt Hasselbeck are teammates again on Thursdays."
