Joe Buck and Troy Aikman, Fox's top broadcasting combo since Super Bowl 39, won't be in the booth for the first time in a long time. In their stead, the new duo of Kevin Burkhardt and Greg Olsen, who are covering their maiden Super Bowl, will be in charge of that task.
Due to the fact that they were both elevated from the No. 2 group to take the position of Buck and Aikman, the pair have received accolades for their on-air compatibility as Fox's leading broadcasting commentators.
As the primary play-by-play analyst for FOX, Kevin Burkhardt has emerged as one of the industry's brightest stars in NFL commentary. The promotion to that position couldn't have come at a more appropriate time because FOX will be broadcasting Super Bowl LVII during Burkhardt's inaugural year in the position.
Burkhardt's net worth is subject to a broad range of projections. His net worth has been estimated on several websites to be between $1 million and $5 million. It is unclear what Burkhardt's pay is, in part, responsible for this ambiguity.
Burkhardt never mentions the earnings from his investments, but based on common assumptions, the broadcaster's annual wages are in the range of $500,000. Burkhardt's salary as the lead announcer is likely higher than that of the other groups.
Did Kevin Burkhardt play in the NFL?
No, Burkhardt never played in the NFL. Burkhardt's parents, both ardent New York Giants supporters, brought him up watching football. After growing up in New Jersey, he studied media studies at William Paterson University.
Burkhardt has worked for a variety of reputable companies throughout his career, affording him a wide range of knowledge about the sector. For eight years, Burkhardt covered various sports in high school for the New Jersey-based radio station WGHT. In 2003, Burkhardt covered part-time stints at WCBS-AM in New York while working at a car dealership.
For almost twenty years now, Kevin Burkhardt will be the first play-by-play broadcaster to cover a Super Bowl who is not Joe Buck, Jim Nantz or Al Michaels.
