A sideline producer and FOX reporter Jenny Taft were discussing work during a kickoff. The only issue was the returner headed left in their direction.
The producer, whom the broadcast referred to as “Andrew” did not see the hit coming. However, it is a good thing he took it in the back because it was able to break what would have been a nasty hit on Taft.
