www.cbssports.comHere’s the latest I can summarize without live tool access:
-
Terry Bradshaw has faced health challenges in recent years, including cancer battles, but has publicly continued his broadcasting work and spoken about staying positive during treatment and recovery. He has also returned to FOX NFL Sunday in various capacities, sometimes remotely, as he managed health concerns and front-office duties on air.[1][2]
-
In 2024 there were reports of Bradshaw missing Fox NFL Sunday due to illness, with explanations provided by the show’s hosts that he was under the weather; subsequent appearances suggested he was still active but managing health matters. There isn’t a clear, ongoing absence noted in late 2025 to early 2026 in the sources I can cite here, but coverage around his health has been a recurring theme in recent years.[3]
-
For context on his broader public activity, Bradshaw has pursued ventures beyond football media, including bourbon entrepreneurship and appearances at events, reflecting a continued presence in sports and entertainment media after his playing career ended.[7][9]
