Gronkowski Laughs Off Thompson's Harsh Comment on FOX NFL Sunday Star

A Light-Hearted Moment on FOX NFL Sunday

During a recent episode of FOX NFL Sunday, the show's panelists were treated to an amusing moment when Charissa Thompson took a playful jab at Jay Glazer. The incident occurred as Thompson was transitioning into Glazer’s “In the Know” segment, and her comment sent Gronkowski and Charles Woodson into fits of laughter.

This lighthearted exchange came just weeks after Michael Strahan had accused Rob Gronkowski of lying about Tom Brady. It also followed Glazer’s earlier controversial claim about Aaron Rodgers during a live broadcast. Despite these moments, the show continues to deliver entertaining content with its unique blend of humor and sports analysis.

Glazer’s Humble Encounter

As Glazer prepared to discuss Joe Burrow’s recent “turf toe” injury, which required surgery and could potentially keep the Cincinnati Bengals quarterback out for the entire season, Thompson made a remark that caught him off guard. She commented on his height, saying, “Well, you guys are saying little guys, and this is not nice of me to say, Jay Glazer, but I have to do it.”

The reaction from Gronkowski and Woodson was immediate and loud. They turned toward Glazer, who stood in silence with his hands out in front of him, clearly taken aback by the comment. Glazer responded with a mix of humor and humility, saying, “You've got one guy being 'delicious,' and I'm 'little'. Are you kidding me? I got the short end of the stick.” Thompson, still trying to contain her laughter, replied, “You just did your own joke, the short end of the stick.”

Despite the teasing, Thompson later added, “You know how much I love you,” showing the friendly nature of the interaction. Woodson chimed in with a light-hearted comment: “You're looking tall today with those shoes on.”

A Season Full of Memorable Moments

The FOX NFL Sunday crew has been known for producing some of the most memorable moments of the season. The panel often finds opportunities to poke fun at each other, creating a dynamic and engaging atmosphere for viewers.

Last weekend, another humorous moment unfolded when Michael Strahan couldn’t resist taking a playful shot at Terry Bradshaw. During analysis of the Eagles’ 20-17 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs, which was a rematch of Super Bowl LIX, Bradshaw made a name mix-up during his commentary.

He expressed his criticism of Philadelphia’s controversial “tush push,” stating, “I, for one, don't like it. I would've voted against having the tush push but, you know what, it's still in there. This is the old scrum football back in the 1940s, so eventually I think they'll stop it.” He then added, “Today, it was hard for me to believe that Kansas City has now lost three in a row. Last year they only lost two games all year til the Super Bowl.”

Strahan seized the opportunity to tease Bradshaw about his age, asking, “Wait, backing up, were you running a tush push in the 40s?” Bradshaw, displaying good humor, responded, “You know, the tush push was my idea!” Strahan burst into laughter before admitting, “You set yourself up, I couldn't help it!”

These moments highlight the camaraderie and humor that make FOX NFL Sunday a beloved part of the football season. Whether it’s through playful jabs or friendly banter, the panel consistently delivers entertainment alongside their insightful sports coverage.
