Via Front Office Sports:
ESPN is preparing to offer Peyton Manning a record $18 million to $20 million a year to serve as lead analyst for “Monday Night Football,” sources tell Front Office Sports.
If so, that would eclipse Romo’s new multi-year contract from CBS Sports that will pay him $17 million annually.
The 43-year old Manning met with ESPN executives over the last few days, sources said. The two-time Super Bowl winner with the Denver Broncos and Indianapolis Colts has an existing business relationship with ESPN, hosting the 30-episode “Peyton’s Places” documentary series on ESPN+.
That’s gotta be in the too much money to turn down range. $20 million to call football games once a week is an absurd amount.
