Kirk Herbstreit has reportedly agreed to a contract extension to remain Prime Video’s analyst on Thursday Night Football. Awful Announcing, citing Andrew Marchand of The Athletic, reports that the deal runs multiple seasons and pays more than $10 million annually.

The extension is reportedly shorter than Herbstreit’s original five-year contract, though its exact length has not been confirmed. The agreement also gives Amazon flexibility to move on if one of its preferred candidates becomes available, according to that reporting.

Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay is the most prominent candidate identified in the report. The flexibility concerns a possible future move if he becomes available; it does not establish that McVay has agreed to join Prime Video.
