Joe Buck Takes Subtle Shot at Troy Aikman Amid Rumored ‘MNF’ Shakeup

Joe Buck seems to be ready to move on from Troy Aikman if he doesn't sign a new contract with ESPN.

Joe Buck seemingly took a subtle shot at Troy Aikman as their future on Monday Night Football (MNF) appears uncertain. In an interview with Underscore, Jimmy Traina recalled a conversation with Buck earlier this year. Traina had asked Buck about working with someone other than Aikman during their contract discussions. Buck emphatically stated that he could work with anyone and had no qualms about it, leaving Traina to wonder if he already knew something significant was about to unfold.

The two have reportedly had a disagreement before a Monday Night Football game between the Los Angeles Rams and the Buffalo Bills on October 12th. Aikman recently shared his thoughts on his future, stating that he is a free agent at the end of the season and is uncertain about his next move. Aikman revealed that he will continue broadcasting through the current season and will be a free agent at the end of the year, pondering his options for the Super Bowl and beyond.
