NFL insider John "The Professor" Clayton is leaving ESPN as part of the sweeping layoffs at the Worldwide Leader in Sports, sources tell Sporting News. ESPN and Clayton both declined comment. The well-respected Clayton has served as a senior NFL writer and commentator at ESPN for 23 years.




Hopefully he tours with Slayer now

dang, that sucks. All these reputable reporters getting axed and we still have jamele hill talking about rappers and shootings on SC6!

Maybe he'll get some more air time on the nfl channel on sirius

It's clear ESPN hates sports at this point. They're axing all their insider reporters. I'm sure Jemele Hill and Steven A can get us the inside scoop from NFL general managers though..

One of my favorites. Though I haven't watched ESPN outside of live sports on months, so I guess I won't notice he is gone

The talent loss from that network is amazing. Cut the good guys are keep the scrubs.

His "this is sports center" commercial is definitely the best representation of the posters on the rant. (Yes I know that includes me too)

I dont watch any of their shows anymore. Just the games. Their stuff is bad and not very entertaining
