Overview
- Tomlin, who signed Tuesday with Sandy Montag’s The Montag Group with Alex Flanagan handling day-to-day representation, formally opened the door to a broadcasting move.
- No on-air deal has been announced, though reports expect multiple networks and streamers to pursue the 54-year-old in what could become a bidding contest.
- Industry reporter Andrew Marchand now points to NBC as a possible frontrunner over Fox, stressing that nothing is certain and any agreement would depend on Tomlin choosing to do TV.
- Recent lineup changes created clear landing spots, with NBC parting ways with Tony Dungy, CBS losing Matt Ryan to the Falcons’ front office, and Fox reshuffling its Sunday pregame cast.
- Tomlin left Pittsburgh in January after 19 seasons with a 193-114-2 record, a Super Bowl XLIII win, and no losing years, making him a high-profile candidate likely to anchor a studio show that fans would see every week.
