After concluding an outstanding playing career, Gonzalez most recently served as a FOX Sports studio analyst on FOX NFL Kickoff for three seasons. Gonzalez was also a part of FOX Sports’ Thursday Night Football pregame show, where he earned a 2020 Sports Emmy Award nomination for "Outstanding Studio Show–Weekly.” He also was an analyst for The NFL Today on CBS from 2014-2016.
His career extends beyond the NFL, as he recently starred in the Spectrum Originals’ drama series Long Slow Exhale. Additional film and television credits include xXx: The Return of Xander Cage and NCIS. He was also featured in the Showtime documentary Play It Forward. In 2021, Gonzalez joined Caldera + Lab as chief wellness ambassador, in an effort to inspire men to prioritize wellness and become the best version of themselves. In 2019, CBS News named him one of their “Fathers of the Year.”
Gonzalez’ NFL career as a tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs and Atlanta Falcons was nothing short of remarkable. He is one of the NFL’s greatest to ever play the position, and among tight ends, he is the league’s all-time leader in receiving yards, consecutive starts, and Pro Bowl appearances. Gonzalez was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2019.
