Legendary NFL quarterback turned FOX broadcaster Terry Bradshaw officially switched political parties a couple of years ago.
Bradshaw, a Hall of Fame quarterback with the Pittsburgh Steelers, hasn’t shied away from voicing his opinion on controversial topics over the years. The former Steelers great turned NFL broadcaster admitted to switching political parties back in 2020.
He was formerly a registered Republican. However, he’s since switched to being a registered independent.
“I’ve been a Republican, but now I’m a registered independent. I don’t want to alienate anyone, and the minute you say, “I’m a Democrat” or “I’m Republican,” you’re kicking off the other side. I want the best person [in the White House], and I’ll pick the one who’s most like the way I feel,” he told bjtonline in 2020.
NFL fans were quick to react.
“Talk about understanding rights and freedom–I don’t think Terry Bradshaw understands them himself. Apparently, he thinks everyone should have the freedom to speak out except for Donald trump. Terry is not a very smart man,” one fan wrote.
“He’s going to vote BLUE!!!” one fan added.
“Bradshaw needs to keep his political opinion to his self, I can see why people turn on the heroes from the past, they open up what they truly think and lose more than half their fans,” one fan added.
“So I guess Terry had one too many concussions,” one fan added.
Bradshaw and the NFL on FOX crew aren’t afraid to speak out on social or political issues, either.
“This is America. If our country stands for anything, folks, it’s freedom. People died for that freedom. I’m not sure if our President understands those rights. That every American has the right to speak out also to protest. Believe me, these athletes do love our this great country of ours.
Personally, I think our President should concentrate on North Korea and healthcare rather than ripping into athletes and the NFL,” he said in 2017.
Will we hear Bradshaw speaking out in 2024?

The NFL went WOKE and hated the American Flag! So they can go BROKE…
doesn’t mean he won’t support President Trump. He is just not confining himself to one party or the other. I know where he is coming from because I too am an Independent by choice. You can support who you want but are not stuck in one party.
