Fans watching FOX’s pregame coverage of the NFC Championship quickly noticed a rather conspicuous absence.
FOX stalwart Terry Bradshaw was not part of the network’s “FOX NFL Sunday” pregame show from Santa Clara on Sunday prior to the game between the Detroit Lions and San Francisco 49ers. Not only is Bradshaw always a part of the network’s coverage, but for big games like Sunday’s, he is usually part of the postgame trophy presentation as well, which made his absence even more conspicuous.
According to Andrew Marchand of the New York Post, Bradshaw missed the show because he is under the weather.

Fortunately, it sounds like a minor illness for Bradshaw. The bad news is Sunday’s broadcast was FOX’s last one of the year, so we will not see him again until the new season starts in September.
Bradshaw has missed time before for other health-related reasons. Hopefully the 75-year-old makes a very quick recovery.
