After a 29-year broadcasting career that was arguably as stellar as his NFL career, Ring of Fame linebacker Tom Jackson is retiring as a broadcaster and NFL analyst for ESPN.
Jackson began his career at ESPN in 1987, months after retiring from his illustrious 14-year NFL career, during which time he recorded three Pro Bowl selections and one first-team All-Pro nod. He added to his trophy collection as an NFL analyst, too, winning the 2015 Pete Rozelle Award from the Pro Football Hall of Fame, in addition to seven Outstanding Studio Show - Weekly Sports Emmy awards as part of Sunday NFL Countdown (1988, 1991, 1994, 1995, 2001, 2003 and 2007).
