Tony Romo Reacts to Troy Aikman, Joe Buck’s Huge ESPN Deals

Joe Buck and Troy Aikman sent shockwaves around the sports media world earlier this offseason when they departed Fox Sports and inked blockbuster deals to become the new lead voices of ESPN’s Monday Night Football coverage.

According to Andrew Marchand of the New York Post, Buck agreed to a five-year contract with ESPN worth between $60 million and $75 million, while Aikman’s deal will earn him $92.5 million over the same span. The humongous contracts followed a recent trend in the sport broadcasting industry, which began when former Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo signed a 10-year deal, worth $180 million with CBS in 2020.
