Terry Bradshaw once again captured audience attention with an unexpected on-air moment during Fox’s NFL coverage this past Sunday.

The 77-year-old NFL icon joined Curt Menefee, Howie Long, and Michael Strahan for Fox NFL Sunday. Yet, the broadcast took an unexpected turn as Bradshaw veered off into an unusual monologue.

While discussing the pregame coverage of the Buffalo Bills’ 26-7 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers—Bradshaw’s former team—he deviated from his analysis to talk about airports instead.

When host Menefee prompted him about the game, the four-time Super Bowl champion replied, “Oh gosh. Folks, there are very few things that make me get nervous.”

Bradshaw continued, albeit somewhat off-topic, “I panic, I will panic, when I go through the airport later tonight… to get through the security line to kind of have… to kind of have a driver’s license, Howie and Michael,” he shared with his colleagues Strahan and Long.

‘Because y’all don’t do that.

Terry Bradshaw once again left viewers stunned with his latest on-air ramble on Sunday 

‘And you have to show that and they’re kind of looking at you and go, ‘OK Mr. Bradshaw, you can come in’.

‘If I don’t have it, and a lot of times I don’t, I panic. Panic!’ 

Bradshaw eventually managed to steer his tangent back to the Bills-Steelers clash when he managed to tie his long-winded anecdote into the Pittsburgh defense’s prospects against Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen. 

‘Facing Pittsburgh today, if I’m Josh Allen, there’s panic written all over this.

‘Last week, sacked eight times, numerous hits.

‘This is time to panic for Buffalo ’cause Pittsburgh is gonna’ be all in his stuff today.’ 

Even his colleagues appeared baffled by Bradshaw’s ramble when he finally finished as Long said: ‘I see what you did there. I’ll tell you what you took a long while to get there.’ 

‘Every time you start your comments like that, I panic,’ Strahan quipped, causing Long to burst out laughing. 

By the time he finished, even his colleagues Howie Long and Michael Strahan were baffled 

Bradshaw’s latest on-air gaffe comes just one week after he botched the name of Jaxon Smith-Njigba while on duty. 

The Seattle Seahawks wide receiver scored a stunning 63-yard touchdown against the Tennessee Titans on November 23.

But while discussing Smith-Njigba’s first-half touchdown, Bradshaw referred to the receiver – live on air – as ‘Njigboo.’

He was called out by fellow panelist Strahan, who reminded Bradshaw that the receiver’s name is Njigba. ‘That’s what I said,’ Bradshaw replied. ‘Something like that.’

Strahan then called out Bradshaw for adding ‘a little “boo” on the end,’ to which the legendary quarterback responded: ‘All right, a little “Njig-boo.”‘

The conversation quickly moved on to the Chiefs-Colts clash but on social media, Bradshaw’s gaffe went viral. ‘Time for him to “retire,”‘ one fan wrote. ‘Someone is deciding to keep him around and continue paying him,’ another added.

A third fan claimed Bradshaw ‘needed to retire about 5 years ago,’ while a fourth accused the four-time Super Bowl champion of making a ‘really dangerous botch of Njigba’s name,’ adding: ‘Strahan reacted like Terry was manhandling a live cobra.’

Bradshaw has been a mainstay on Fox’s NFL programming for over 30 years. After retiring from football in 1984, Bradshaw quickly joined CBS as a game analyst before jumping ship to Fox ten years later.

It came after Bradshaw faced more calls to retire during Fox’s coverage the week prior

He previously struggled to pronounce the name of Bears running back D’Andre Swift, calling him ‘Deonday… DeAndre Smith’ before one of his colleagues corrected him.

He also recently told a bizarre story about Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid.

‘The other day, I text Andy Reid and I get a text back. I thought it was Andy Reid but it was some guy selling pigs,’ he began. ‘I shouldn’t have told y’all that, so that you thought that I actually talked to Andy Reid.’

Bradshaw addressed his future earlier this year. ‘I got two years left at Fox,’ the 77-year-old said. ‘It’s a young man’s game. I get that…if we can get to the next Super Bowl, I’ll be 80. I think that’s time.’
