Cowherd said Jansen wants to get into broadcasting

[joecrisp]

It's becoming more and more common for athletes to spend their off-time doing broadcasting, even when they're far from retiring as an athlete. It makes a lot of sense, when you consider that they never know when their athletic career might come to a screeching halt.

Jansen's just getting a jump start on his prospective broadcasting career, and he'll be much better for it when he finally does decide to hang it up (which, hopefully, won't be for a long time), or he has no choice.

Watching him on the ESPN draft day special the past couple of years, he definitely has a frank and honest nature, which is entertaining and makes for good TV or radio, especially when he's paired up with a butthead like Romanowski.

No matter how big you are, smart people can still make you look stupid, but Jansen acquits himself quite well. He's able to make a bold statement and argue his way out of it. Well... except for that Super Bowl cointoss prediction... that didn't quite pan out the way he expected. But he's still a sharp guy, and that goes a lot farther in the broadcasting business than a lot of people think.
