With his professional football career in a bit of a limbo, former Missouri Tigers star Michael Sam has joined the Mizzou Network as a broadcasting analyst.
Sam’s career after Missouri has been a bit of a rocky road. After failing to stick with both the St. Louis Rams and the Dallas Cowboys, Sam headed north and played for the Montreal Alouettes in the CFL. He then left the Alouettes over concerns with his mental health.
Sam’s gregarious personality and unique perspective on the game should provide the Missouri fan base with some terrific analysis.
