Rob Riggle is the new resident funny guy on Fox NFL Sunday.

In a release, Riggle said:

“I’m very excited to join the FOX NFL SUNDAY team! Wait, what does NFL stand for again?”

I expect that the material will improve. Riggle, a Kansas City Chiefs fan, is a funny guy. For this type of show, his work as a faux correspondent for the Daily Show should serve him well.

USA Today’s Michael Hiestand writes Fox NFL Sunday wanted to shift away from Frank Caliendo after nine years. Farewell again, John Madden.

“Nothing against Frank, we love Frank,” says Fox producer Chris Pizzi. “But it’s been nine years. We wanted something fresh. Rob is on the edge of becoming a huge star. We want to help him. And that helps our show too.”
