NFL Network Again Let Go of Fans Favorite Reporter

By | Bullscore 30 Mar, 2023

Have you heard the latest about the NFL Network? They’ve been making some big changes, and it’s not all good news. Some of the fans’ favorite reporters, like Jim Trotter, Rachel Bonnetta, and now Mike Giardi, are saying goodbye to the network.

Mike Giardi, who’s been with NFL Network since 2018, shared the sad news on Twitter. He said that just six weeks ago, he was covering the Super Bowl. But now, he’s part of the big budget cuts everyone’s been talking about. Even though it’s tough, Mike’s staying positive and looking forward to what’s next.

6 weeks ago, I was covering the Super Bowl for @nflnetwork. This week, I was informed that I'm being bought out as part of the long rumored budget cuts. I gave them my very best. I'll give the same going forward. Greatly appreciate those who believed in me. On to the next.

It’s been a rough time for Jim, Rachel, and Mike, as well as for all the football fans who rely on their great reporting.

But there’s some good news too! People in the industry have been sending Mike and the others lots of kind words and good wishes. Dan Roche from WBZ-TV called Mike the “ultimate pro” and said he’s sure Mike will find something even better down the road.

Mike – you are the ultimate pro. The works you’ve done. The sacrifices you’ve made, and the person you are will lead you to greater things down the road! Hang in there my friend! @MikeGiardi https://t.co/Z7Zy2IKedp

Mike Catalana from WHAM-TV in Rochester, New York, said it was a bad move by NFL Network, and he thinks another network will be smart to grab Mike Giardi quickly.

Terrible decision by @nflnetwork Great reporter who is at the top of his game. Knew both #Bills and #Patriots beats. Another network will be smart to pick up @MikeGiardi quickly. https://t.co/WGn0YcxCmh
