The NFL and football in general are dying (due to CTE issues) so it's never reverting back to anything. ESPN can't revert back because they'll have nothing else to talk about.
Eta:I'm getting downvoted but the NFL isn't going to be around in 20 years. Pee wee, middle, and HS attendance numbers around the country have been going down. There are plenty of huge football fans on this board and elsewhere who won't let their kids play the sport. And with all these studies coming along with the possibility that they'll eventually be able to detect CTE in live patients, the sport is experiencing its last hoorah.

People say this but the playoffs and the super bowl are the most watched sporting events all year. Add that to the spectacle the NFL draft has become and I would say the league is still going strong.

Football isn't going anywhere. You might not have the same level of talent in the future due to kids not playing it because of the risks, but it's not going anywhere.
