The Hall of Famer’s time has come to an end.
Jimmy Johnson has officially announced his retirement from Fox.
Johnson went on The Herd and informed the audience of his decision to step away from his broadcasting role with Fox.
“Probably the most fun I’ve ever had in my career, and that’s counting Super Bowls and national championships, was at Fox Sports,” Johnson said.
“I have an absolute ball with my friends on the set and the best friends I’ve ever had there with Fox.
“And I tell you, on top of that, you know, I love working for Eric Shanks, our CEO and our producer, Bill Richards.
“But I’ve made an extremely difficult decision, I’ve been thinking about it for the last four or five years, and I’ve decided to retire from Fox and I’m going to miss it.
“I’m going to miss all the guys and I’ll see them occasionally, but it has been a great run starting back 31 years ago.”
Fans caught wind of the announcement and shared their tributes to the legend.
“Great career. Hall of Fame as a coach and an analyst. Congrats Jimmy,” posted one fan.
“End of an area,” said a second.
