NFL analyst makes brutal mistake

One week after Boomer Esiason learned about Terry Bradshaw’s knack for reading game highlights, the Fox studio analyst credited Rasheed Wallace with a touchdown.

When you’re watching the Kansas City Chiefs, it might seem like Patrick Mahomes is good enough to make anyone look like a competent NFL wide receiver. But no, that wasn’t a 49-year-old former NBA All-Star catching touchdowns from Mahomes Sunday afternoon in Kansas City, despite what Bradshaw may have attempted to tell the audience.

During the Fox NFL Sunday halftime show, Bradshaw shuffled though his highlight package, as he typically does. But even if you weren’t paying Bradshaw much attention, it was hard not to pause when he went through the first half highlights from the Chiefs-Bengals game and credited Rasheed Wallace with a touchdown.

“Rasheed Wallace on the 44-yard touchdown and a good football game,” Bradshaw said as the highlight showed Mahomes throwing a 44-yard touchdown to second year wide receiver Rashee Rice.

Perhaps Bradshaw was flustered by the highlight beginning with Taylor Swift on the screen. Or perhaps, this is just what the 76-year-old Bradshaw does.

But don’t blame age for Bradshaw’s gaffe. Hearing the four-time Super Bowl champion and veteran Fox NFL Sunday studio analyst stumble through his highlight read is nothing new, as Esiason recently found out.

With the former Bengals quarterback having no NFL Sunday responsibilities for the first time since pretty much ever last week, the former CBS studio analyst was able to check in on Fox’s studio broadcast.

“I was worried about him, Is that the way it’s been?” Esiason asked , prompting his radio co-host Gregg Giannotti to suggest Bradshaw stumbling through his highlights has become schtick over the years.

It’s one thing botch a highlight. But why Bradshaw had Rasheed Wallace on his mind over the weekend, we may never know.
