Kurt Warner taking NFL TV role with Fox

"In an unusually quiet NFL TV offseason with few changes in network on-air lineups, Fox will formally announce two new game analysts today: Jim Mora and Kurt Warner.

Mora, fired by the Seattle Seahawks after going 5-11 last season, will call games in a three-man booth with Dick Stockton and Charles Davis. (Like father, like son: Mora's father, Jim E. Mora, was an NBC NFL analyst in 1997 after resigning from coaching the New Orleans Saints.) Fox Sports vice chairman Ed Goren Sunday suggested Mora's on-air potential is a wild card: "With Mora, who knows? He's done a lot on the NFL Network. . . . Jim wasn't ready to get back into coaching. The unknown is whether he gets tempted down the road.

Goren likened Mora's situation with ex-Baltimore Ravens coach Brian Billick joining Fox in 2008. Billick, said Goren, has embraced broadcasting. "But would he go back to coaching? I don't think even he knows."

Warner, who retired from the Arizona Cardinals after throwing for 32,344 yards over 12 NFL seasons, will call at least three games working with either Chris Myers or Chris Rose and, logically, start with the New Orleans Saints at Arizona on Oct. 10. (He'll be replacing Trent Green.)"
