CNN star Jim Acosta appeared to share a cryptic post about not retiring as his future at the network remains up in the air.

Reports have claimed the anchor is on the verge of leaving after being demoted.

Acosta currently goes on air at 10am ET, but that midmorning slot is set to be replaced by the politics show The Situation Room, presented by Wolf Blitzer.

The schedule shakeup is part of a raft of changes that Mark Thompson, the network’s CEO, announced last week in a memo to all workers.

Acosta wasn’t given a replacement slot, but reports claimed he could be bumped down the TV listings to a show airing at midnight.

But, Oliver Darcy, a former CNN media correspondent, claimed in his Status newsletter that Acosta could soon depart CNN.

And, another insider told Fox News Digital that the journalist might be considering cutting his contract.

As rumors about his future continue to swirl, Acosta shared a post on X that featured the Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz.

Ertz told journalists he doesn’t plan to retire after his team lost the NFC Championship game against the Philadelphia Eagles.

“I don’t know what the future holds,” Ertz said.

“I still want to play football next year. I just want to make that clear that I’m not retiring.”

Last week, a defiant Acosta told viewers that he was still reporting from Washington.

While on the air, Acosta has tried to hold Republican lawmakers to account and previously clashed with Donald Trump in 2018.

Trump and Acosta were involved in a spat during a heated press conference following the midterm elections, which saw the Republicans lose control of the House of Representatives.

Acosta even had his White House press pass revoked for around two weeks after the public confrontation.

Trump was quizzed on an anti-immigration campaign advert before things escalated.

It prompted the president to say: “Honestly, I think you should let me run the country. You run CNN.”

After hurling a jibe at CNN, Acosta continued to press Trump and tried to ask him another question.

A White House aide darted over to Acosta as Trump opened the floor to other reporters.

Acosta remained hold of the microphone while the president repeatedly told him: “That’s enough.”

“Excuse me, that’s enough,” Trump told the journalist.

Acosta managed to fit in the question he tried to ask about so-called Russian collusion before Trump, again, told him to put down the microphone.

The microphone was eventually handed over to another journalist before Trump lashed out at CNN.

“CNN should be ashamed of itself having you working for them,” Trump said as he pointed at Acosta.
