WWE SmackDown commentator Pat McAfee may soon return to his home sports, American football, NFL. Pat McAfee became a major attraction at this year’s the Most Stupendous WrestleMania in Texas. Not only did he appear at WrestleMania, but he also emerged victorious over Vince McMahon’s protégé Austin Theory.

Fortunately, just when McAfee’s WrestleMania moment is still giving him goosebumps, he may have another massive deal in his cart. Since McAfee retired from the NFL, he has made a colossal shift in his career.

McAfee, besides WWE commentary, hosts an internet show called The Pat McAfee show as an analyst. Among many other activities, McAfee has also bagged himself an enormous contract of $120 million with FanDuel.

What stupendous deal does Amazon offered to Pat McAfee?

The New York Post recently reported that Pat McAfee is in talks with Amazon to be a part of the broadcasting team for Thursday Night Football. SmackDown commentator and Amazon have discussed McAfee’s role in contributing to the football coverage that will begin this fall.

Pat McAfee cheekily addressed on the latest episode of his show that his internet show will be aired on the Amazon Prime Video platform.

McAfee said, “Pretty high altitudes last night that we were soaring in as I was reading everything on the internet about what was going on next for our entire company. I was like, ‘Is that happening? I don’t know, who knows something? We are in the middle of conversations with maybe that group of people.'”

As of now, the NFL punter has been in contact with Amazon for Thursday Night football coverage. However, nothing has been confirmed yet. Amazon has already recruited Kirk Herbstreit and Al Michaels for the coverage.

Will the WWE SmackDown commentator leave the company?

If the former NFL punter cracks the deal with Amazon, he will be the newest addition to the headset team. McAfee’s commitment to Mr. McMahon’s SmackDown every Friday night makes it highly questionable that he will call games every Thursday. However, it might also be difficult for Vince McMahon to keep McAfee once his contract expires.

At the Showcase of the Immortals, the former NFL punter settled a score with Austin Theory by making his WrestleMania debut. McAfee also shared the WrestleMania stage with WWE boss Mr. McMahon but lost to him in an impromptu contest this year.
