Joe Buck and Troy Aikman Approach Contract Year at ESPN
Joe Buck and Troy Aikman are set to enter the final year of their contracts with ESPN, which are due to expire after the upcoming season. Buck expressed a desire to spend his career at ESPN, although no contract discussions have begun.
Both broadcasters signed five-year agreements for Monday Night Football in 2022, with Aikman earning $18 million annually and Buck receiving $15 million. Their representation has shifted to CAA, which may negotiate their contracts as a package.
Given the limited options for high-profile broadcasting roles, it is unlikely both will leave ESPN. One potential alternative could be Amazon, where other prominent broadcasters have contracts that extend beyond the current season.
