Chris Simms discusses his approach to sports media and analysis

Chris Simms, in his 10th season with NBC Sports, emphasizes his authenticity and commitment to preparation in sports media. Growing up as the son of former NFL player Phil Simms, he reflects on his evolution from a player to a media professional. Simms hosts two programs, including the Chris Simms Unbuttoned podcast, where he provides in-depth analysis and criticism within the NFL. His approach is shaped by a desire to debunk narratives while remaining informed and engaged with the game. Conversations about potentially joining an NFL franchise indicate his aspirations, although he remains focused on his current role.
