McAfee, who hosts the wildly popular "Pat McAfee Show," has remained involved in the world of sports since his retirement from professional football following the 2016 NFL season. He had a stint with Barstool Sports and has also served as an analyst for Fox Sports' college and NFL broadcasts. Most recently, he became part of ESPN's 2019 "Thursday Night College Football" team.
