“Absolutely blown away and honored. Also honored to follow in that man’s footsteps. Great announcer, better man, and I miss him,” Buck said.
Buck, 51, received the Pete Rozelle Award, which is given to one person annually “for longtime exceptional contributions to radio and television in professional football.”
Buck has been an NFL play-by-play announcer for FOX since 1994 and became their top play-by-play announcer in 2002. Buck joins his late father, Jack Buck, as a recipient of the Pete Rozelle Award.
