Jay Glazer serves as the NFL Insider for FOX Sports’ award-winning NFL pregame show, FOX NFL Sunday, where he breaks in with exclusives, late-breaking updates and injury news, and other various reports right up until the start of Sunday’s games and all the way through FOX’s Sunday coverage.
Glazer has established a reputation for breaking major stories in the NFL all year round. He prides himself on his hard work and accurate reporting, two traits that have helped bolster him to the next level of NFL reporting and has made Glazer a “go-to” source for news and information.
Glazer has also served as a host for Bellator’s signature MMA fights on the Paramount Network. Prior to joining Bellator, Glazer served as a UFC host and analyst. As a former fighter himself able to combine his hosting and reporting background, Glazer brought a unique personality and perspective to the UFC broadcasts.
In the past, Glazer has hosted other various shows for FOX including FOX Football Daily and Fantasy Football Uncensored, among others. Glazer has also worked as a host/reporter/analyst for NFL Network. On the entertainment side, Glazer has starred in multiple TV shows including HBO’s Ballers and The League on FX. In 2015, he hosted the season finale of Wicked Tuna for National Geographic. He is a natural in front of the camera, allowing his fun, outgoing and unique personality to shine through on the biggest of stages.
Glazer also started the first MMA-training program for professional athletes with over 1,000 athletes having utilized his training program. He and his team have trained All-Pros Von Miller, Aaron Rodgers, Odell Beckham, Bobby Wagner, Andrew Whitworth, Jadaveon Clowney, Lane Johnson, Cam Jordan and the entire New Orleans Saints team heading into the season.
When the cameras are off, Glazer can be found at his gym in West Hollywood, Unbreakable Performance Center. In 2014, he opened the gym with former Chicago Bears’ all-pro linebacker, Brian Urlacher, and U.S. Women’s Volleyball Captain, Lindsey Berg. The gym has become the home to many elite athletes, actors, musicians and members of the business world. Clientele include Demi Lovato, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Odell Beckham Jr., Chuck Liddell, Michael Strahan and P.Diddy, just to name a few. In the spring, Glazer runs NFL training camps for players who want to be in top physical and psychological shape before their team camps open. Yahoo Health named UPC the “Most Elite Gym in America” because of its top-of-the-line trainers, equipment, clientele and philosophies. Glazer prides himself on making a difference in his clients’ lives and helping them to live happier, healthier and more successful lives.
With all of his accomplishments, Glazer is most proud of the charitable organization he launched in 2015, MVP (Merging Vets & Players), which works to match former combat veterans and former professional athletes to help each other through the transition into their new lives away from the battlefields and playing fields. MVP has locations in several cities and regularly hosts workouts and counseling sessions for the members of MVP both in person and virtually.
In January 2022, Glazer released his first book, Unbreakable: How I Turned My Depression and Anxiety Into Motivation and You Can Too. That same year, iHeartMedia and Fox Sports Radio launched his podcast, Unbreakable with Jay Glazer: A Mental Health Podcast. Glazer shares his personal mental health journey with audiences, including the tools and techniques he’s developed to “live in the gray” – his term for living and thriving with anxiety, depression and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
