Meyer previously served with the network after stepping away from football after his stint as the head coach at Ohio State. He spent 2021 coaching the Jacksonville Jaguars but was eventually fired for a number of off-field issues and poor results on the field.
Considering how things went down in Jacksonville, it will be interesting to see how Meyer’s return to broadcasting is received by college football fans.
