Even as a newly-enshrined Hall of Famer, Carolina Panthers legend Luke Kuechly is still one of the busiest men in football.
The former Defensive Player of the Year, five-time first-team All-Pro and seven-time Pro Bowler added another title to his wildly decorated résumé on Thursday night—making his debut for Netflix on the streaming service's broadcast of the Week 1 matchup between the San Francisco 49ers and the Los Angeles Rams.

Here are some of the best reactions (and rave reviews) to Kuechly's impressive performance . . .
Luckily for fans and Netflix subscribers, this might not be Kuechly's only assignment of the 2026 season. He may also be slated to serve as a color analyst, beside play-by-play commentator Noah Eagle, for Netflix's coverage on Thanksgiving and Christmas later in the campaign.
