With Skip Bayless no longer ranting on FOX Sports and the start of the NFL season just around the corner, the broadcast giant is restructuring it’s schedule.
Some reports stated that they would give bigger platforms to Emmanuel Acho and Nick Wright, hoping they would become the new faces of the company.
That’s why it’s not much of a surprise to see that the first will get another show, joined by fellow former NFL players LeSean McCoy, James Jones, and Chase Daniel.
With that in mind, Daniel took to Twitter to share the news and talk about how humbled and thankful he was for this opportunity.
I’m beyond excited and grateful to announce that I’m joining the @FOXSports family for a brand-new show called “The Facility” with @EmmanuelAcho, @CutonDime25, and @89JonesNTAF!
A year ago, I never dreamed I’d get the chance to be talking football on National TV every single… pic.twitter.com/mgIc5FqqC8

He thanked the NFL Network for putting him on TV while he was still a backup QB for the Los Angeles Chargers, announcing that his new show on FOX will be called The Facility.
Daniel has become a quick riser on social media.
His podcast on The Athletic’s network with Dianna Russini has been a big hit, and he’s become a regular guest on TV shows and podcasts to discuss football, so he seemed like an easy choice for FOX.
It’s always nice to see former athletes getting an opportunity to continue being a part of the game in a different capacity.
Also, having four guys who were actually there in the league, regardless of whether they were backups or actual stars, gives the people at home a different insight and perspective of what’s truly going on on the field and in a locker room.
