Orlovsky, 41, joined Marcus Spears as a video guest on Friday’s Get Up ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft.
He was discussing the New York Giants trading in the first round to select Ole Miss quarterback Jaxon Dart.
But mid-sentence, he was interrupted by a fire alarm in the background.
The persistent alarm continued to sound in the background as Orlovsky has a bemused look on his face.
Matt Barrie, Dan Graziano, and Domonique Foxworth in the Get Up studio appeared more concerned about his safety.
Graziano could be heard saying: “You better go dude.”
Spears then joined in as he warned, “if this thing is for real, then I got to go.”
Berrie then opted to make a Titanic sinking ship joke before moving on.
He said: “I tell you what, if there is an orchestra on the deck as you run out of the hotel, then you are in trouble.”
ESPN then also edited the banner on the screen to read: “Dan Orlovsky: Takes are too hot.”
Fans saw the funny side of the moment as a clip was shared on social media.
One posted: “Incredible how quick witted graphics producer must be to get that ‘Takes are too hot’ bar that fast.”
A second wrote: “Unpredictable quirks.”
A third commented: “Haha Dan reacted brilliantly.”
Meanwhile, the Giants have revealed that NFL veteran Russell Wilson will be the starting quarterback next season despite Dart’s pickup.
Head coach Brian Daboll said: “Russ will be our starter, and that’s how it’ll be once we get started here in the spring.
“So we’re going to do everything we can to develop Dart and bring him along.
“We have some good quarterbacks in the room relative to playtime, experience, some medals on the wall, if you will.”
