Terry Bradshaw is facing renewed calls to retire after mispronouncing the name of Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba during a live segment on Fox NFL Sunday.

The incident occurred after Smith-Njigba scored a 63-yard touchdown against the Tennessee Titans, continuing a season in which he has recorded 1,313 receiving yards, the most of any player in the league.

While discussing the play, Bradshaw referred to the receiver as “Njigboo.”

Panelist Michael Strahan corrected him, saying the player’s name is Njigba.

Bradshaw replied, “That’s what I said. Something like that.”

Strahan then responded that Bradshaw had added “a little ‘boo’ on the end,” prompting Bradshaw to say, “All right, a little ‘Njig-boo.’”

The panel then shifted to previewing the Chiefs-Colts matchup.

The exchange quickly drew attention on social media. One viewer wrote, “Time for him to ‘retire.’”

Another posted, “Someone is deciding to keep him around and continue paying him.”

A third fan said Bradshaw “needed to retire about 5 years ago,” while another called it “a really dangerous botch of Njigba’s name,” adding, “Strahan reacted like Terry was manhandling a live cobra.”

Bradshaw, 77, has been a part of Fox’s NFL coverage for more than three decades.

After retiring from the NFL in 1984, he joined CBS as a game analyst and later moved to Fox in 1994.

He has been a fixture on Fox NFL Sunday since the network launched its NFL programming.

The misstatement was the latest in a series of on-air mistakes by Bradshaw in recent months.

During a previous broadcast, he had difficulty pronouncing the name of Chicago Bears running back D’Andre Swift, calling him “Deonday… DeAndre Smith” before being corrected by another panel member.

He also recently told a story about Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid, saying, “The other day, I text Andy Reid and I get a text back. I thought it was Andy Reid but it was some guy selling pigs. I shouldn’t have told y’all that, so that you thought that I actually talked to Andy Reid.”

Bradshaw previously commented on his future with the network. “I got two years left at Fox,” he said.

“It’s a young man’s game. I get that… if we can get to the next Super Bowl, I’ll be 80. I think that’s time.”

Smith-Njigba’s performance this season has made him a prominent figure in the league, and his touchdown against Tennessee contributed to continued attention on his role in the Seahawks’ offense.

Bradshaw’s mispronunciation, combined with earlier on-air errors, has added to ongoing discussion about his lengthy tenure in broadcasting.
