Apple and Major League Soccer announced a second round of talented on-air personalities who will join the MLS Season Pass broadcast team, including Nashville SC television color commentator Jamie Watson.

Watson is one of 31 new additions who are recognized and accomplished announcers, expert analysts and storytellers whose passion for the game will help showcase all of the MLS action to fans in more than 100 countries and regions.

Prior to Nashville, Watson was the television analyst for Minnesota FC from 2017-20. He also played professionally for 12 seasons, including stints with Real Salt Lake, FC Dallas, Orlando City SC and Minnesota United FC. He was a two-time USL champion and USL MVP in 2013.

“[I’m] beyond thrilled to get to work with arguably the best team of broadcasters ever assembled! Join us on the Apple TV app starting Feb. 1 for #MLSSeasonPass,” Watson shared on Twitter.

The complete on-air broadcast team and full production plan for MLS Season Pass will be announced prior to the start of the MLS 2023 season, which begins Feb. 25.

MLS Season Pass, the unprecedented subscription service on Apple TV, will feature every match of the regular season, Audi MLS Cup Playoffs and Leagues Cup all in one place, with consistent match times and no blackouts. The service will also feature live pre-game, halftime and post-game analysis, and a whip-around show that will provide live look-ins and analysis for all the key moments from every match.
