Today
marks the beginning of the NFL season, and Sports Illustrated is kicking off
the festivities with the debut of a new live web show, Pro Football Now
presented by John Hancock.
The
weekly, half-hour series—a spinoff of SI’s current daily live web series, SI
Now—will broadcast live from Time Inc.’s new digital video studios every
Thursday morning at 10:30. Pro Football Now will be hosted by SI anchor Maggie
Gray and former New York Giants player (and Super Bowl winner) Amani Toomer,
while a rotating cast of other NFL experts—including SI writers like Peter King
and Don Banks—will make regular guest appearances. The inaugural episode
features the Giants’ wide receiver Victor Cruz previewing week one games.
