Going from field to field: Athletes turned broadcasters
David Nixon grew up in Texas, where football is life. An outside linebacker for BYU from 2003 to 2008, Nixon finished his decorated collegiate career with a Mountain West Conference record of 43 tackles for loss. After signing with the Oakland Raiders out of college, Nixon went on to play four years in the NFL. When his playing days ended in 2012, Nixon was snapped up into the world of sports broadcasting — a world that has quickly become the birthplace of a second career for many former athletes.
