Scott Hanson Recalls Hosting NFL RedZone While Dealing With Painful Injury
World Sports · 21:55:16 - Saturday, 31 October 2026

NFL RedZone host Scott Hanson has revealed he worked through a painful injury that kept him awake at night, according to a recent interview. Hanson, who has anchored the popular whip-around show since its inception, described the physical toll of broadcasting live for hours each Sunday while managing the condition.

The veteran broadcaster did not specify the exact nature of the injury in the available remarks, but indicated it was significant enough to disrupt his sleep and make the demanding RedZone schedule particularly challenging. Hanson has been the face of NFL RedZone since the channel launched in 2009, providing commercial-free coverage of every touchdown from around the league each Sunday afternoon.

Further details about the injury, its timeline, and how Hanson managed his broadcasting duties during that period were not disclosed in the initial report.
