Pat McAfee is seemingly already everywhere in the world of sports, but the former NFL punter turned multimedia superstar is apparently just getting started. Andrew Marchand is reporting that McAfee is set to join ESPN's College GameDay, and he's not just going to be there as a guest.
Marchand is reporting that McAfee is going to join College GameDay full-time, and he'll be starting this Saturday when the No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide take on the Texas Longhorns from Austin, Texas.
"McAfee, 35, will continue to do his daily talk show that is on YouTube, as well as Friday WWE shows for Fox," Marchand wrote. "McAfee recently ended his relationship with SiriusXM, which had simulcast his show for two years. McAfee is in the midst of deal with FanDuel, which is set to pay him in excess of $120 million over four years."
Giving credence to the reporting is a tease from McAfee himself on Twitter.
My life is dumb. If I was 2 die tomorrow, right b4 passing I’d be proud & dumbfounded of what I have been lucky enough 2 do.

Along with being a part of GameDay, McAfee will also do "alternative broadcasts" on select college football games this season on ESPN2.
He's everywhere.
