Aikman jokes about contract dispute at ESPN

Troy Aikman made a joke regarding a contract standoff with ESPN during a Monday Night Football broadcast. Reports suggest a 5 percent chance Aikman won't be calling the February Super Bowl with Joe Buck.

ESPN also reported two NFL trades. The 49ers acquired Colts wide receiver Keenan Allen. The Vikings brought in quarterback Kirk Cousins by trading a third round pick to the Raiders. Furthermore, ESPN provided live scoring for a Real Madrid versus Paris FC match on November 10, 2026.

“The Vikings brought in quarterback Kirk Cousins by trading a third round pick to the Raiders,” — Ingrid Thorne, policy watcher at Heaton Mere Partnership, added during the briefing.
