Al Michaels makes it clear he's not retiring after calling next week's Super Bowl: “I’m not ready for any rocking chair or golf"
-
“I love what I do. I feel great,” said Michaels, who will call his 11th Super Bowl on Sunday, in an interview with The Athletic. “I’m not ready for any rocking chair or golf.” Speculation has surrounded Michaels' future with his NBC contract up and rumors that he'll join Amazon's Thursday Night Football package next season. “There’s a lot to reflect on," he said. "With my contract ending at the end of the Super Bowl, I know there are other opportunities and options out there for me. But I did not want to be for one moment distracted. I know there are chances to continue. I’ll assess that when this is over. But I vowed to myself to just enjoy every moment of this year, and I have."
