Fox Sports host Colin Cowherd reacted to an earthquake in San Diego live on Monday’s edition of The Herd. It’s always bizarre to see these reactions on live television.

Fill-in co-host Jordan Schultz said he felt it during Cowherd’s interview with SI’s Albert Breer. Apparently, Cowherd didn’t feel it in studio, but Schultz did.

Cowherd relayed it was a magnitude of “5.2” just “north of San Diego.” The long time host was “locked in,” as Schultz said despite Cowherd’s mic moving.

Cowherd is a true professional, isn’t he? He was locked in on NFL Draft talk with Breer during the show and didn’t even let an earthquake bother him!

Speaking of the NFL Draft, he had an interesting take regarding the Pittsburgh Steelers. Cowherd said the team would draft Alabama QB Jalen Milroe amid the Aaron Rodgers uncertainty.

“Keep your head on a swivel Aaron Rodgers, I’m told the Steelers really like Jalen Milroe (with the) 21st pick, first round,” Cowherd said Thursday. “So, if Aaron signs with Pittsburgh, it’s going to become a Kirk Cousins (situation, because) they’re taking a quarterback.

“I’ve been told the Steelers are looking around at all these AFC quarterbacks and Milroe is the most athletically-gifted guy to come out of this draft at that position since Lamar Jackson, and they feel as an organization that they need ‘special,’” Cowherd continued. “They just don’t stack up, they need special at quarterback. And I’ve said he’s a better version of Anthony Richardson. Great kid, throws a deep ball, and now with D.K. Metcalf, they have a deep threat along with (George) Pickens. But this is potentially a Kirk Cousins situation.”
