After he retired as a three-time Super Bowl champion, Mark Schlereth joined ESPN and became a mainstay on their studio and radio shows for over a decade.
However, in 2017, he would make his move over to Fox and start working as an NFL game analyst.
The former Denver Broncos lineman recently revealed why he had to make that decision.
“They offered me a deal but I wanted to call games and they were never putting me in the Monday night booth. So I bet on myself and went to FOX,” he admitted.
Fox Sports host Colin Cowherd absolutely loved the idea.

In 2019, Schlereth stated on Twitter that he has signed a three-year extension to remain with Fox while noting that he turned down a “generous offer” to return to ESPN.
It worked out for him and Fox Sports.
