In his 166 NFL games, Cobb recorded 630 receptions for 7,624 yards and 54 touchdowns. He was named to the NFL All-Rookie Team in 2011, the Pro Bowl in 2014 and the NFL Top 100 in 2015.

During his three-year college career with the Wildcats, Cobb was named a first-team All-American and two-time first-team All-SEC. A member of the University of Kentucky Hall of Fame, he caught 144 balls for 1,661 yards and 13 touchdowns as a wide receiver and added 1,313 rushing yards for 22 touchdowns. He played in 11 games at quarterback during his freshman year and earned SEC All-Freshmen honors.

Cobb will be a part of “SEC Now” and “Out of Pocket” throughout the fall.

“I am incredibly excited to be returning home to the SEC in this new role,” Cobb said in a statement. “The level of greatness this conference delivers year after year is unmatched. I can’t wait to return to the conference family with this SEC Network team.”
