77-year-old Terry Bradshaw will miss Week 11's FOX NFL Sunday after being sent home from the network's Los Angeles studio with an illness. The set instead will just feature the trio of Curt Menafee, Howie Long, and Michael Strahan.
"You may notice Terry Bradshaw is not with us this morning; he came to work sick!" Menafee said at the start of the weekly FOX NFL Sunday broadcast. "He decided to go home; he's not feeling well."
"We miss you, man!" Long shouted. Strahan then clarified Menafee's reporting. "He didn't decide to go home; we sent him home, let that be known," he joked, getting a laugh from the rest of the set. "Get some rest, my friend," Long urged Bradshaw.
