NFL Media gains two

NFL Media Group announced production of two new series – The NFL’s All-Time Team and The NFL 100 Greatest – designed to anchor NFL 100-themed programming and content premiering across the NFL’s television and digital platforms starting this fall. NFL Network host Rich Eisen joins Cris Collinsworth and Bill Belichick as hosts of The NFL’s All-Time Team. Over six episodes, Eisen, Collinsworth and Belichick will be joined by special guests to discuss the results of a 26-person blue ribbon panel tasked with crowning the NFL’s All-Time Team – the roster of 100 players and 10 coaches named “The Greatest” in their respective positions. The “greatness” theme is also central to the series The NFL 100 Greatest, which counts down the greatest NFL memories in five categories – Plays, Characters, Games, Game Changers and Teams. The series features more than 400 interviews with celebrities, current NFL stars and Legends that will air across 20, one-hour episodes with four episodes dedicated to each topic.
