Former Carolina Panthers great Luke Kuechly, a Cincinnati native who starred at St. Xavier High School, will be Netflix’s No. 1 NFL game analyst, according to a report July 28 from The Athletic’s Andrew Marchand.
Kuechly was elected in February to the Pro Football Hall of Fame’s class of 2026.
Kuechly, a seven-time Pro Bowler for the Panthers, was one of 15 modern-era player finalists for the 2026 class, along with former Bengals offensive tackle Willie Anderson. Both were denied one year earlier.
Kuechly joined the Panthers’ radio broadcast for seven games during the 2022 season.
Kuechly was among 2021 St. Xavier Athletic Hall of Fame inductees.
The Panthers removed from circulation Kuechly’s No. 59, which he wore throughout his eight seasons as a player for the team before announcing his retirement in January 2020.
