Why hasn't Cris Collinsworth been doing his "Collinsworth slide" this season on NBC?
The former Cincinnati Bengals receiver appeared on former Bengals Ruler of the Jungle Kay Adams' "Up & Adams" show and explained that the slide went away because his partner in the broadcast booth, play-by-play announcer Mike Tirico, doesn't do an opening monologue.
"What am I gonna do? It's like, I'm sitting there. I could lean out, and then - but it'd just be like stupid. So what do you do?" Collinsworth said to Adams, before suggesting that the slide could make a return.
