Born and raised in Manalapan, New Jersey, Jay Glazer got his start covering the New York Giants for the New York Post and the local cable channel, NY1. Prior to joining the Fox Sports family in 2004, he covered the NFL for CBS SportsLine and was an insider on CBS Sports' The NFL Today. Among his many scoops over the years are the New England Patriots' Spygate video, Oakland Raider Barret Robbins's Super Bowl Mexican bender, the NFL subpoenas in the BALCO drug-lab scandal, and the league's new concussions rule.
Outside football, Glazer has trained more than 100 NFL players, including Jared Allen, Odell Beckham Jr., and Callais Campbell, improving their on-field performance with MMA techniques. He has also served as a special guest trainer for the Atlanta Falcons, New Orleans Saints, and other teams.
In 2014, he co-founded the Unbreakable Performance Center, a private training facility in West Hollywood regularly frequented by Chuck Liddell, Mark Wahlberg, and Demi Lovato, as well as numerous NFL, NHL and MMA athletes.
Beyond his sports assignments, Glazer stars as himself in all five seasons of HBO's Ballers; his other acting credits include Bones, The League, The Game Plan and The Longest Yard. Yet it's his commitment to military veterans that has truly captured his heart. In 2015, he and former U.S. Army Green Beret Nate Boyer founded the charitable organization MVP (Merging Vets and Players) to assist veterans and former professional athletes, who often faced a tough road adjusting to civilian life.
