Legendary NFL RedZone host Scott Hanson has just landed a tremendous new job.
According to Fox Sports’ Jordan Schultz, EA Sports is adding him to Madden NFL 26.
Schultz reported that Hanson, the host of NFL RedZone, is “the new in-game voice” for Madden.
His exact role in the game is unclear.
Hanson will be one of the voices in the video game, which will be released in August. The host will be in the recording studio with EA this spring.
The news about Scott Hanson comes after EA previously reported that Greg Olsen, Mike Tirico, Brock Huard, and Kate Scott’s voices would be added to the game alongside Brandon Gaudin and Charles Davis.
Given his experience on NFL RedZone and as a host for other NFL Network programming, having Hanson in Madden 26 will certainly excite fans about the game even more.
There Were Talks About Scott Hanson Moving To Different Network

Back in February, there were reports that Scott Hanson was discussing a deal that could see him leave ‘NFL RedZone’ following a 15-year stint.
RedZone already underwent a major change at the end of the 2024 NFL season, introducing a few ads to its previously famous “seven hours of commercial-free football.”
Hanson has hosted NFL RedZone since the program’s creation in 2009. However, his contract with NFL Network expired after the 2024 NFL season.
Front Office Sports’ Michael McCarthy reported that he may not leave and is “still in negotiations to return to NFL Media.”
However, he added that talks between Hanson and the company “have stalled… amid negotiations for ESPN to take over NFL Media and NFL RedZone,” per Front Office Sports.

Social media might be down incredibly bad as Lucia from Grand Theft Auto is going insanely viral.
GTA 6’s trailer 2 officially broke a record after the upcoming second look at the game, which has continued to take forever to come out.
GTA 6 broke the record for the longest wait between a first and second trailer for a Rockstar Games title ever.
Rockstar has built a rich world of criminals, lunatics, and thieves spanning from Liberty City to San Andreas and beyond. With GTA 6 on the horizon, fans have become ecstatic after seeing a picture of Lucia.
For those unaware, she is a female criminal in the game. Grand Theft Auto states that she did her time at a prison complex in the State of Leonida in the mid-2020s for an unknown crime.
As anticipation builds for the release of Grand Theft Auto 6, a picture shows Lucia stripped down to a two-piece bikini.

“They better have some awesome clothing to choose from. Gotta look cute while doing missions,” a second fan added.
A third fan knew they were no match for her: “If I was in a beauty contest against her, she’d get first place, and I’d get disqualified.”
“She’s beautiful, my sapphic heart can’t take it 🤧,” another X user added.
“not leaving my house anytime soon,” a fan stated about the impending release of the game.
“No arsenal, but ima be a gooner for sure, a sixth fan added.
One final fan added: “Anybody upset about a video game character needs to seriously reevaluate their life.”
