Now THAT'S impressive.





The NFL is filled with legendary people, not just those who played on the field, but those who put so much work in behind the scenes to make sure fans have the best experience possible, and broadcasters certainly fall in that line.





James Brown has spent his entire career broadcasting NFL games, being a voice that any football fan could recognize and relate to. To say he's a beloved football figure would be a massive understatement. He might also be unrecognizable to some.





Here's what he used to look like.

Now, the James Brown that we all know and love looks almost unrecognizable after losing an incredible 75 pounds recently. ​​

​​Clearly, Brown has been putting in an incredible amount of work to shave all of that weight off since last October.

​​The man is almost unrecognizable now. He's still got the legendary James Brown smile, but he looks totally different otherwise.





Congrats James and keep up the great work!
