“To add a talent and fan favorite like Chris to our team will add excitement to our broadcast and a level of unpredictability for our listeners,” Chuck Sapienza, Executive Producer for the Redskins Radio Network, said in a statement. According to PFT's Michael David Smith, Cooley will not replace Sam Huff as a color commentator but will instead chime in once a quarter with his thoughts on the game. Larry Michael will continue to handle the play-by-play duties for the Redskins, and Sonny Jurgensen will provide color commentary.
