"This is truly a full circle moment for me," said Berry, who served as a fantasy football expert at NBC Sports' Rotoworld from 1999-2004. "I started my career at Rotoworld, spent many years there, and not many people are lucky enough to get the chance to come home. I've spent my entire life talking fantasy football to anyone that would listen. So when I was offered the chance to join the highest-rated studio show in all of sports, I couldn't say yes fast enough. Please remind me of this quote the next time I realize millions of people just saw me get a prediction wrong. In the meantime, know that I am incredibly honored and humbled by the opportunity not just to join the FNIA family but also to help build something special on Peacock."
