Bradshaw assumed his usual role on Fox NFL Sunday this week, but fan reception wasn’t great.
In recent weeks, fans have noticed Bradshaw messing up his lines more often.
Those fans have expressed their frustration on social media during the show.
“@NFLonFOX please get rid of Terry Bradshaw,” one fan said.
“He is the worst I have switched to watching CBS because of him.”
In previous weeks, Bradshaw has accidentally delivered the wrong segments on Fox NFL Sunday.
At 76 years old, Bradshaw understands that his time on the show could come to an end soon, but he wants to stay as long as he can.
“When that time comes, when they say to me, ‘Happy Trails,’ oh man, you want to say that’s never going to happen,” he said.
It could be coming sooner rather than later though, as Bradshaw has dealt with health issues in recent years.
Bradshaw was meant to be on Fox for last year’s NFC Championship but missed it due to an illness.
Two years prior he was diagnosed with cancer and missed time to recover.
“I ran out of breath and Howie [Long] helped me off and a lot of people have asked what’s wrong with me, what’s happened to me physically and I just want to address it and let you know what has happened in my life,” Bradshaw said in 2022.
“In November (2021), I was diagnosed with bladder cancer. I went to the Yale University Medical Center for treatment and as of today, I am bladder cancer free.
“All right, that’s the good news.”
Bradshaw is cancer-free, but some fans still believe it is time for him to go into retirement.

“Terry Bradshaw having too many senior moments during halftime update of Lions-Vikings game,” one fan said.
“What FOX does to Terry Bradshaw every week is despicable,” another fan said.
“At some point we’re going to have to consider Terry Bradshaw doing the rapid halftime reports as elderly abuse,” a third fan said.
“Get Terry Bradshaw off of television,” a fourth fan said.
Bradshaw likely won’t retire from TV until he physically has to, and fans should enjoy the Pittsburgh Steelers legend while they still can.
