Pittsburgh Steelers legend announces retirement plans

view original post

Pittsburgh Steelers legend Terry Bradshaw says that he will walk away from the booth eventually. Bradshaw, 76, has worked with CBS and FOX Sports as a studio analyst since the 1980s, after he retired from being a quarterback with the Steelers.

Bradshaw joined FOX in 1994 when NFL Today launched, but he says that he will likely retire when FOX gets another Super Bowl after Super LIX.

“I told my wife before I even left the room awhile ago, I was sitting there and I said, ‘I’ve got two years left at Fox. I’m 76,’” Bradshaw said. “OK, so It’s a young man’s game. I get that… so I said, if we can get to the next Super Bowl, I’ll be 80. I think that’s time.”

That would put Bradshaw’s retirement in 2029, when FOX will again have the Super Bowl. He has already worked 13 Super Bowls and will again work a 14th Super Bowl on Sunday.

He had an illustrious career as a player and broadcaster, with Bradshaw winning four Super Bowl and three Emmys for his roles on FOX and CBS over the last 40 years.

Bradshaw has faced health issues recently, which has ramped up retirement speculation for the Pro Football Hall of Famer. But it seems he does not plan to slow down for at least another few years.
