(Aug. 21, 2006) -- Former NFL Defensive Player of the Year Deion Sanders has joined NFL Network as an analyst.
Sanders, who holds the NFL record for career return touchdowns (18 by kickoff, punt, interception and fumble), will offer a fresh-from-the-field perspective as an analyst for NFL GameDay on Sunday nights and the On the Field pregame show for NFL Network's eight regular-season games. Sanders retired after spending the 2004-05 seasons with the Baltimore Ravens. Previously, he was an analyst on CBS' The NFL Today pregame show from 2001-03.
NFL GameDay will take fans on a 360-degree, 90-minute spin around the league at 11:30 p.m. ET each NFL Sunday, putting the exclamation point on the day's action. Sanders joins fellow analyst Steve Mariucci and host Rich Eisen on NFL GameDay, which will be the best and most extensive NFL highlights show on television with unlimited use of highlights of all Sunday games plus postgame press conferences, interviews and analysis. GameDay will run in a continuous loop on NFL Network with the final airing at 1:30 p.m. ET on Mondays.
