Tim Hasselbeck

NFL Analyst

Former NFL quarterback Tim Hasselbeck joined ESPN in August 2008 as a NFL studio analyst. He appears on NFL Live, SportsCenter and ESPN Radio.

Hasselbeck spent six seasons (2002-07) in the NFL as a player, most notably with the Washington Redskins (2003-04) and New York Giants (2005-06), where he served as a back-up to Eli Manning.  He also played in one game in 2007 for the Arizona Cardinals. Hasselbeck was originally signed by the Buffalo Bills as an undrafted free agent in 2001.

Hasselbeck was among the first group of active players to participate in the NFL’s “Broadcast Boot Camp” at NFL Films during the summer of 2007. The seminar paid immediate dividends as Hasselbeck made his television debut in September 2007 as an analyst during a Cardinals-Ravens game on FOX. He also served as an analyst for SportsNet New York and contributed to Sirius NFL Radio.

A native of Norfolk, Mass., he currently lives in New York City.  Hasselbeck played college football at Boston College where he was a two-year starter. He graduated in 2001 with a degree in Marketing from the Carroll School of management.

Hasselbeck is the son of former NFL tight end Don Hasselbeck and brother of Seattle Seahawks quarterback Matt Hasselbeck. He is married to The View co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck.
