ESPN is going with a familiar face as its new host for “Sunday NFL Countdown.”

Mike Greenberg will be the new host of the weekly NFL pregame show, The Athletic reported Tuesday, replacing Sam Ponder, who, along with Robert Griffin III, was fired by ESPN last week.

Greenberg, a longtime ESPNer who used to host “SportsCenter” and the “Mike & Mike” radio show with Mike Golic, currently hosts ESPN’s morning show, “Get Up,” and the “Greeny” radio show, and previously hosted “NBA Countdown.”

The 57-year-old gets the nod over Laura Rutledge, who hosts “NFL Live” during the week.

ESPN’s firings last week came as a surprise to many considering football season is close to kicking off, but the moves were made for financial reasons as the company’s fiscal year approaches its end, according to The Athletic.

Ponder, 38, had one year and more than $1 million left on her contract, The Athletic reported.
