Still Going Strong After 30 Seasons
Since joining FOX in 1994 after the network snagged NFL rights from CBS, Terry Bradshaw has become a beloved face of “FOX NFL Sunday.” Loud, animated, and full of Southern charm, Bradshaw has stuck with the crew for 30 seasons—and he’s not done yet.
Retirement Rumors Swirl After Jimmy Johnson’s Exit
When co-host and longtime friend Jimmy Johnson retired earlier this year, speculation grew that Bradshaw would be next. Health concerns added fuel to the fire, as Bradshaw revealed he had battled two forms of cancer and struggled with weight gain from steroid treatments. Yet, despite it all, Bradshaw says he’s not slowing down just yet.
“I’m Not Going to Quit”—Bradshaw Clears the Air
During an interview on FOX 32 Chicago, Bradshaw firmly dismissed retirement rumors. “I’m not going to quit singing. I’m not going to quit giving lectures. I’m not going to stop the horse business,” he said. He added that he has two years remaining on his FOX contract, which runs through the 2026 season—and possibly beyond if FOX wants him for Super Bowl LIX in 2029.
80 and Still on the Air?
Bradshaw expressed interest in continuing past his current contract if possible. “If I could, I would probably stay four more years, and I’d be 80, and that’s enough,” he said. It’s ambitious, but Bradshaw has made it clear: if FOX wants him, he’ll show up.
Travel, History, and a Full Life Beyond Football
Off-camera, Bradshaw’s enjoying life more than ever. He’s lost nearly 50 pounds, rediscovered his love for travel, and has plans to visit Normandy—a destination inspired by his wife Tammy’s poem. A World War II buff, Bradshaw says he’s eager to continue exploring Europe and soaking in history before “God calls me home.”
The Final Drive? Not Just Yet
While retirement is on the horizon, Bradshaw isn’t rushing it. With health in check and passion still burning, the NFL Hall of Famer will remain a fixture on Sundays—at least for now. Whether he calls it quits at 78 or pushes it to 80, Terry’s legacy as a broadcaster is already Hall of Fame-worthy.
