Troy Aikman is reportedly headed to ESPN next season to be the lead analyst on “Monday Night Football”, according to the New York Post’s Andrew Marchand.
The deal is not complete, but it is expected to be done soon. Aikman was also being considered for Amazon’s analyst role for Thursday night games, where he could have paired with legendary broadcaster Al Michaels.
Wednesday’s report also noted Michaels has been consistent about wanting Aikman as his partner. Michaels has not finalized any deals for next season, but he will not be staying at NBC.
