Last week we heard Dallas Cowboys Pro Bowl TE Jason Witten was calling it quits from the NFL to become ESPN’s new Monday Night Football analyst. He are more details on the money they're offering him...

All signs point to the tight end ending his 15-year NFL career to become the lead analyst on ESPN’s Monday Night Football broadcast, multiple sources said. Club officials hold out hope that Witten will decide to stay but recognize this is a rare opportunity and a difficult decision.

The multi-year offer from ESPN would pay Witten in the neighborhood of $4 to $4.5 million a year, two sources with an understanding of the offer said. While the Pro Bowl tight end didn’t have his sights set on a career change when the season ended four months ago, the status of the job and magnitude of the offer is something he can’t ignore.

Didn't espn just fire a ton of their staff? And now they wanna pay Witten 4-4.5 million a year? Someone at ESPN is bad at decision making.

No shite. Especially for someone who has no experience in broadcasting. What a wasted opportunity to save money.

Yeah, that is interesting ESPN is willing to pay that much to someone with no broadcasting experience right after they had to cut numerous personal because of declining ratings and revenue.
