NFL fans who are used to seeing Scott Hanson on "NFL RedZone" on Sundays during the fall got to see him in a different setting over the winter.

Hanson, 54, was part of NBC Sports' "Gold Zone" during the Milan Cortina Olympic Games in February. The whip-around show, inspired by "NFL RedZone," covered all the happenings during the Olympic Games and gave viewers a look into as many different events as possible.

Hanson told Fox News Digital that hosting "Gold Zone" and "NFL RedZone" require different skills.

"It's fascinating because it's red zone for the Olympics, and yet, there's a definite different dynamic to it, because when I'm doing RedZone, and I say, ‘Eagles-Giants, Philadelphia, down by four, no time outs remaining, first and goal from the five. Let's see if Jalen Hurts and Company can punch it in.’ Boom, I'm done," Hanson said in a recent interview with Lowe's.

"I don't go, ‘Eagles-Giants, first and goal, now there's 11 men over here, and there's 11 men over here, and they're trying to move that piece of leather over the goal line. Like, I don't have to do that."

Hanson said that for the Olympics he has to explain so much more to the viewer than just the game.

"When I go to curling in the winter Olympics on Gold Zone, I do need to explain, ‘Okay, there's the stone, there's the house, there's the button, here's the scoring system, here's how long it lasts, everything,’" Hanson said.

"We got to explain the rules and the fundamentals of the sport on top of telling the personal stories of the athletes who are competing and the greater context in terms of what a gold medal would mean or what a loss would mean, that type of thing. So it's a heck of a challenge, but it's fun."

Hanson said that the audience told him that it was the most fun way to watch the Olympics because they knew that "Gold Zone" would cover everything that was happening.

The Milan-Cortina Olympic Games were Hanson’s second time being part of "Gold Zone," as he was a part of its coverage for the Paris 2024 Olympics, but it was his first Winter Olympics. Hanson said he is already signed on to be part of "Gold Zone" for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games.

"For those who enjoyed Gold Zone, I've already signed up to do the LA games in 2028," Hanson said. "So the Summer Games back in the United States is going to be epic, a couple of years from now."
