Another piece on the wild offseason NFL announcer carousel is falling into place. Al Michaels will work with Kirk Herbstreit on Amazon Prime Video’s “Thursday Night Football,” according to the New York Post.
Michaels is expected to sign the contract shortly after months and months of negotiations. Michaels will be paid near the Joe Buck neighborhood, according to sources.
Buck signed a five-year, $75 million deal with ESPN to join his longtime partner at Fox, Troy Aikman, on ESPN’s “Monday Night Football.” Michaels’ contract is for three years.
