In his first comments since reports initially surfaced back in February, longtime broadcaster Tony Dungy has confirmed his exit from NBC's Football Night in America.
"I have been informed by NBC that I won’t be back with FNIA this fall and it has given me time to reflect and also to look ahead," Dungy wrote in a statement on X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday.
"It’s disappointing news, but I want to thank my NBC family for making the last 17 years so special. I’ll have lasting memories of my time there, especially with Rodney Harrison, who has become a tremendous friend.
"God has always directed me in these moments and while I’m not sure what the next step will be for me—whether it will be in football, in broadcasting, or getting more involved in church and community outreach."
