Dan Patrick |
Patrick told The NYPost he recently made the decision. He said that NBC offered him a new, five-year-deal in December, but, at 61, he said he did not want to make a commitment.
“I didn’t want to do it and not love doing it,” Patrick said.
Patrick does want to continue his radio show and is on the verge of renewing with AT&T and DirecTV for the next three years, he said.
Patrick had been doing NBC’s pregame for the last nine years and co-hosted the Super Bowl four times.
His contract with NBC Sports Network is a licensing agreement for the simulcast of his radio show. It still could continue even though he will not be on Sunday night.
Mike Tirico is the leading candidate to be the main host on the pregame.
