Seahawks' Greg Olsen will vault up to Fox's No. 2 broadcast team after playing days end

Seattle Seahawks tight end Greg Olsen has lined up a pretty sweet post-playing career.

Whenever he chooses to stop playing football, Olsen is reportedly set to join Fox’s No. 2 broadcasting team for NFL games, according to the New York Post. That would pair the three-time Pro Bowler in the booth with play-by-play man Kevin Burkhardt, one of the network’s top announcers.

Olsen had considered retiring and joining Fox this past winter, before the Seahawks swooped in with a one-year deal worth up to $7 million. The Buffalo Bills and Washington Redskins both pursued Olsen in free agency.
