Scott Hanson bloodies himself while cheering on Team USA as another member of NBC’s Paris Olympics team injures themselves

Another member of the NBC Olympics broadcast team has injured himself, this time it’s Gold Zone host Scott Hanson.

Hanson, the longtime host of ‘NFL Red Zone’, has been called in to broadcast a similar show to the wraparound American football program that he’s been working for years.

But the man working on Peacock says that he was celebrating a Team USA swimming medal a little bit too hard.

‘I was pounding the desk on Gold Zone when Team USA was winning a medal. I’m designated ‘likely’ to return,’ Hanson wrote on Twitter as he showed a photo of his bloody pinky finger.

Hanson injured himself while cheering on Luke Hobson of the United States as he won the bronze in the 200-meter freestyle.

Prior to the start of the Olympics, Hanson shared his excitement about the energy that he could bring to the broadcast.

‘I hope to deliver those same dopamine hits that we give to our ‘RedZone’ audience to the ‘Gold Zone’ audience,’ Hanson told Indiewire. 

‘If I’m going from from gymnastics to swimming, and doing whip-around coverage at ‘Gold Zone,’ it’s the same voice that you hear every NFL Sunday on ‘RedZone.’ Hopefully it meshes well with with this particular Olympic audience.’

Hanson isn’t the only person who has been injured in the line of duty for NBC at the Olympics.

Saturday Night Live’s Colin Jost, who’s in Tahiti covering surfing for NBC, showed off his injured toes after scraping them against a coral reef.

The comedian shared a picture of his bandaged and bloodied feet in two posts on Instagram joking that he’s ‘been to the Olympic medical tent more than any of the athletes.’

‘This might ruin my WikiFeet score but I just arrived in Tahiti for the surfing Olympics and the reef was excited to greet me,’ Jost wrote in a post from Friday.
