Dan Orlovsky, who has served as an NFL analyst with ESPN since 2018, has agreed to terms on a long-term contract, Front Office Sports reported on Monday.
Per the report, the former NFL quarterback will remain as a game analyst for the second-string team on 'Monday Night Football' with Chris Fowler, Louis Riddick and Laura Rutledge. Orlovsky, 41, will also continue to appear on 'NFL Live,' 'SportsCenter,' 'Get Up' and 'First Take.'
Orlovsky's new contract is not final but he is apparently 'at the 1-yard line' with the network, per the report.
Before the holiday weekend, the former Detroit Lions QB posted a picture on social media toasting himself and on his Instagram story, he wrote, 'Here's to what's next.'
He wrote on his X account on Monday: 'Gotta keep working. Gotta keep proving yourself. Gotta stay hungry. It's always the journey.'Orlovsky, whose NFL career began in 2005 and lasted until 2017, is a popular figure at ESPN who has apparently shown interest in becoming a coach in the NFL.
'Dan's been talking to some teams and seeing if there's something that interests him and is worthwhile for him,' ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter told Pat McAfee in an interview.
In February, Front Office Sports reported that Orlovsky was 'exploring his options' regarding potential free agency. Last month, it was reported by The Athletic that Orlovsky would likely return to ESPN.
ESPN declined to comment on Monday's report.
