Terry Bradshaw’s iconic presence in football broadcasting is set to continue as he joins “FOX NFL Sunday” for Super Bowl LIX coverage.
The 76-year-old legend, who has been lighting up screens since the show’s 1994 debut, will be in his element in New Orleans.
As the Kansas City Chiefs chase a historic third consecutive championship against the Philadelphia Eagles, viewers can’t help but wonder if retirement is on the horizon for one of football’s most beloved personalities.
Those thoughts can take a backseat, for now.
Bradshaw confirmed his return for the 2025 season, though he openly discussed the eventual end of his broadcasting career.
The former quarterback said he has about two years left before bidding farewell to the studio, with hopes of covering one more Super Bowl with FOX, an ambitious target, even by his own admission.
“I told my wife before I left the room a while ago, I was sitting there, I said, ‘I’ve got two years left at FOX.’ I’m 76. It’s a young man’s game. I get that,” Bradshaw said, via Express US Sports. “Everybody wants the new. … I said, if we can get to the next Super Bowl, I’ll be 80. I think that’s time.”

The thought of FOX NFL coverage without Bradshaw seems almost unthinkable, yet it’s a reality the network will eventually face.
His broadcasting journey began well before his FOX days, starting at CBS Sports, where he spent four seasons on “The NFL Today.”
Since making the switch to FOX, he’s become a cornerstone of football coverage, earning three Sports Emmy Awards.
Whenever Bradshaw decides to step away from the microphone, his departure will mark the end of an era in sports broadcasting.
