CBS announced on October 22 a multi-year deal making J.J. Watt its lead NFL analyst, replacing Tony Romo alongside Jim Nance. The discussion has widened past the booth change: Joe Buck's ESPN contract is worth $108 million, and that deal was agreed in May and kept from Troy Aikman, who felt double-crossed and is in the final year of his own contract. Dan Patrick has been told Aikman will not be in the Monday Night booth next year. Elsewhere, Travis Kelce and Greg Olsen asked Amazon about the Prime Video booth last year, and Kirk Herbstreit's deal has an out clause. Watt's role calling the Super Bowl CBS holds next season remains part of the conversation.
