Greenberg currently hosts ESPN’s morning show, Get Up, and the Greeny radio show.  He previously hosted NBA Countdown, SportsCenter and the Mike & Mike radio show with Mike Golic.

He takes over the host role from Sam Ponder, who was reportedly fired last week, alongside football analyst Robert Griffin III. The decision to part ways with the two was described as being part of a cost-cutting move.

Greenberg will join returning analysts Super Bowl Champions Tedy Bruschi and Rex Ryan, Pro Football Hall of Famer Randy Moss, three-time Pro Bowl quarterback Alex Smit on ESPN’s Sunday NFL Countdown.
