“Ryan likely wouldn't end up on a number one broadcast team.”

Another executive with NFL games as well was quoted as to saying their interest level was at "none."

“From my perspective, I just watch a game totally different than probably most people,” he said.

"In the booth, there’s technique, there’s fundamentals that go along with it that just take time to kind of learn, to kind of train. Just like as a quarterback. It doesn’t happen overnight."

"Whether this is the only area where Jason Garrett replaces Drew Brees is unknown."

“The unbelievable busyness of an NFL career and then really not taking a break at all and launching right in with us with both Notre Dame football and the NFL, it was certainly an around-the-clock assignment,” Bevacqua said. “This was definitely a lifestyle choice for him."

"The entire USFL broadcast must be well received at 30 Rock, because Marchand notes that Jac Collinsworth, who is Garrett's partner in the booth, is being considered as the new play-by-play voice of the Irish on NBC."

"He’s succeeded at everything he’s ever done and then he gets into the booth and they kick him out after one year. It’s a tough spot.”

"Not much is known about Brees's future plans at this point."

"His early work is being met with mixed reviews, but what can really be expected of a guy that just stepped off the football field?"
