FOX broadcaster Terry Bradshaw will not appear on television today following the death of his son-in-law, former Titans kicker Rob Bironas, in a car accident last night.
“Terry will not be on today’s edition of
FOX NFL Sunday. He flew home to take care of his family,” a FOX spokesman told PFT in a statement.
This has been a tough year for Bradshaw’s family. Terry also missed FOX’s broadcast of the Super Bowl after the death of his father.
The 36-year-old Bironas was in a single-car accident late Saturday night near his home in Nashville. Police said he lost control of his SUV, hit several trees and was pronounced dead on arrival at a local hospital. There was no evidence of alcohol at the scene.
Bironas spent nine years as the Titans’ kicker. He owns the NFL record for most field goals in a game, kicking eight (including the last-second game-winner) in a game against the Texans in 2007.
Rachel Bradshaw, the Hall of Fame Steelers quarterback’s daughter, married Bironas in June.
