See Star-Studded Video as The CW Announces New ‘Inside the NFL’ Host & Analysts

A new era begins for one of the most venerable sports TV shows.

The CW is the new exclusive home of Emmy-winning weekly studio series Inside the NFL, which features NFL Films video highlights and analysis from the game’s top experts.

“We are so proud that Inside the NFL has been loved and consumed by football fans for an incredible 47 years,” said Ross Ketover, Senior Executive, NFL Films. “Now having this show on broadcast television for the first time, with our new partners at The CW, everyone at NFL Films is unbelievably excited to refresh and reinvent this tentpole franchise.”

Here’s a look at the show’s new lineup:

Ryan Clark (Host)
Clark’s playing career as a safety spanned 13 NFL seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers, New York Giants and Washington and included a Super Bowl XLIII title and two AFC Championships. He currently serves as an analyst on ESPN’s Monday Night Countdown.

“Every day I showed up to work it was always about the next step … I dreamed of being a host, but not even in my wildest dreams did I think it would be the host of Inside the NFL,” said Ryan Clark. “I played against all the analysts who will be with me on Tuesday nights and always admired the way they approached the game of football. I’m excited to see that same passion poured into the new Inside the NFL now that we are all on the same team.”

Channing Crowder (Analyst)
Crowder is a former linebacker who played six NFL seasons with the Miami Dolphins. He currently co-hosts South Florida’s highly rated daily sports radio show Hochman & Crowder and The Pivot Podcast.

He currently holds all Bengals team receiving records and will be inducted into the Bengals Ring of Honor this fall. Formerly known as Chad Ochocinco, he competed on Season 10 of ABC’s Dancing With the Stars.
