A replacement has been revealed following the news of Phil Simms and Boomer Esiason getting set to leave CBS’ ‘The NFL Today,’ with Matt Ryan to take up the gig.
The Athletic initially reported that the longtime NFL analysts were out at the network. They have since confirmed as much.
“Great 26 yrs run with CBS SPORTS. Even though that part of my career is over I look forward to what is next,” Simms shared on Twitter/X.
Esiason hinted the decision to leave the show after 22 years wasn’t his, but he’ll still be part of the CBS Sports family. The former Cincinnati Bengals quarterback has also signed an extension to continue his WFAN morning show.
