'''Terry Paxton Bradshaw''' (born September 2, 1948) is an American former professional [[American football|football]] [[quarterback]] who played in the [[National Football League]] (NFL) for 14 seasons with the [[Pittsburgh Steelers]]. Since 1994, he has been a television [[sports analyst]] and co-host of ''[[Fox NFL Sunday]]''. Bradshaw is also an actor and recording artist, having participated in several television shows (mainly as himself) and films, most notably co-starring in the movie ''[[Failure to Launch]]'', and releasing several country music albums.

Nicknamed the '''Blonde Bomber''',<ref>{{Cite web |title=Terry Bradshaw: The Blonde Bomber |url=https://pigskindispatch.com/home/Player-Index/Player-T?myfav=myfav_482777bbcab080f4fd2383b2d4e88d3d_qNfO&k=football+name%3ABradshaw+Terry |website=www.pigskindispatch.com |access-date=July 24, 2025}}</ref> he won four [[Super Bowl]]s in a six-year period ([[Super Bowl IX|1974]], [[Super Bowl X|1975]], [[Super Bowl XIII|1978]], and [[Super Bowl XIV|1979]]), becoming the first quarterback to win three and four Super Bowls, and led the Steelers to eight [[AFC Central]] championships. He was inducted into the [[Pro Football Hall of Fame]] in 1989, his first year of eligibility, and the [[College Football Hall of Fame]] in 1996.

Bradshaw was known for being a tough competitor and having one of the most powerful arms in NFL history. His physical skills and on-the-field leadership played a major role in the Steelers' dynasty throughout the 1970s. During his career, he passed for more than 300 yards in a game seven times, but three of those performances came in the postseason (two of which were in Super Bowls). In four career Super Bowl appearances, he passed for 932 yards and nine touchdowns, both Super Bowl records at the time of his retirement. In 19 career postseason games, he completed 261 passes for 3,833 yards.

==College career==
[[File:Terry Bradshaw La Tech 1967.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Bradshaw in 1967 at Louisiana Tech]]
Bradshaw decided to attend [[Louisiana Tech Bulldogs football|Louisiana Tech University]] in [[Ruston, Louisiana|Ruston]],<ref name=":1" /> recruited in part by future Hall of Fame coach [[Jimmy Johnson (American football coach)|Jimmy Johnson]]. He has much affinity for his alma mater, and is a member of the [[Tau Kappa Epsilon]] [[Fraternities and sororities|fraternity]]. Initially, he was second on the depth chart at quarterback behind [[Phil Robertson]], who later became famous as the inventor of the [[Duck Commander]] [[duck call]] and television personality on the [[A&E (TV channel)|A&E]] program ''[[Duck Dynasty]]''.<ref name=hwndch>{{cite news|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=dAEtAAAAIBAJ&pg=1273,6184046|newspaper=The Palm Beach Post|title=He will never duck challenge|date=November 8, 1983|page=D5}}{{Dead link|date=March 2023 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref><ref name=lthtbpr>{{cite web |url=http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/eye-on-college-football/23626584/louisiana-tech-honors-terry-bradshaw-phil-robertson-at-tulane-game |work=CBS Sports |last=Patterson |first=Chris |title=Louisiana Tech honored Terry Bradshaw, Phil Robertson Thursday |date=September 13, 2013 |access-date=September 15, 2013 |archive-date=October 6, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131006212913/http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/eye-on-college-football/23626584/louisiana-tech-honors-terry-bradshaw-phil-robertson-at-tulane-game |url-status=live }}</ref>

In 1969, Bradshaw was considered by most professional scouts to be the most outstanding college football player in the nation. As a junior during the 1968 season, he amassed 2,890 total yards, ranking number one in the [[National Collegiate Athletic Association|NCAA]], and led his team to a 9–2 record and a 33–13 win over [[Akron Zips football|Akron]] in the [[Grantland Rice Bowl|Rice Bowl]]. In his senior season, he gained 2,314 yards, ranking third in the NCAA, and led his team to an 8–2 record. His decrease in production was mainly because his team played only 10 games that year, and he was taken out of several games in the second half because his team had built up huge leads.

Bradshaw graduated owning virtually all Louisiana Tech passing records at the time. In 1970, Bradshaw received the Golden Plate Award of the [[Academy of Achievement|American Academy of Achievement]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Golden Plate Awardees of the American Academy of Achievement|website=www.achievement.org|publisher=[[American Academy of Achievement]]|url=https://achievement.org/our-history/golden-plate-awards/#sports|access-date=August 30, 2020|archive-date=December 15, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161215023909/https://achievement.org/our-history/golden-plate-awards/#sports|url-status=live}}</ref> In 1984, he was inducted into the inaugural class of the Louisiana Tech sports hall of fame.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.lasportshall.com/inductees/football/terry-bradshaw/?back=inductee | title=LA TECH ATHLETIC HALL OF FAME | access-date=January 1, 2017 | website=latechsports.com | archive-date=January 16, 2017 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170116155830/http://www.lasportshall.com/inductees/football/terry-bradshaw/?back=inductee | url-status=live }}</ref> Four years later, he was inducted into the state of Louisiana's sports hall of fame.<ref>{{cite web|title=Bradshaw, LA Sports Hall of Fame|url=http://www.lasportshall.com/inductees/football/terry-bradshaw/?back=inductee|website=LA Sports Hall of Fame|access-date=January 1, 2017|archive-date=January 16, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170116155830/http://www.lasportshall.com/inductees/football/terry-bradshaw/?back=inductee|url-status=live}}</ref>

==NFL career==

===Pittsburgh Steelers===
[[File:TerryBradshawTrainingCamp.jpg|thumb|Bradshaw arriving at Steelers training camp]]
In the [[1970 NFL draft]], Bradshaw was selected as the first overall pick by the Pittsburgh Steelers,<ref>{{Cite web |title=1970 NFL Draft Listing |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/1970/draft.htm |access-date=June 5, 2024 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref> who got the first pick in the draft after winning a coin flip [[tiebreaker]] with the [[Chicago Bears]] since the teams had identical 1–13 records in [[1969 NFL season|1969]].<ref>{{Cite news |last=Pierson |first=Don |date=January 8, 2008 |title=Former Bears coach and Halas successor dead at 77 |url=http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/cs-080108chicagobearsjimdooley,0,62437.story?coll=chi_tab01_layout |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080112132314/http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/cs-080108chicagobearsjimdooley,0,62437.story?coll=chi_tab01_layout |archive-date=January 12, 2008 |work=Chicago Tribune}}</ref> Bradshaw was hailed at the time as the consensus number-one pick.

Bradshaw became a starter in his second season after splitting time with [[Terry Hanratty]] in his rookie campaign.<ref>{{Cite web |title=1970 Pittsburgh Steelers Rosters, Stats, Schedule, Team Draftees |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/pit/1970.htm |access-date=June 5, 2024 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref> During his first few seasons, the 6'3", 215-pound quarterback was erratic and threw many interceptions (he threw 210 interceptions over the course of his career), and was mocked by the media for his rural roots and perceived lack of intelligence.<ref name=":0" /><ref>{{Cite news |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=gL9scSG3K_gC&dat=19701109&printsec=frontpage&hl=en |title=Blowing Bubbles |work=[[Pittsburgh Post-Gazette]] |date=November 9, 1970 | access-date=November 15, 2015 |archive-date=November 17, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151117040205/https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=gL9scSG3K_gC&dat=19701109&printsec=frontpage&hl=en |url-status=live}}</ref>

Bradshaw took several seasons to adjust to the NFL, but he eventually led the Steelers to eight [[AFC Central]] championships and four Super Bowl titles. The Pittsburgh Steelers featured the "[[Steel Curtain]]" defense and a powerful running attack led by [[Franco Harris]] and [[Rocky Bleier]], but Bradshaw's strong arm gave them the threat of the deep pass, helping to loosen opposing defenses. In [[1972 NFL season|1972]], he threw the "[[Immaculate Reception]]" pass to Franco Harris, among the most famous plays in NFL history, to beat the Raiders in the AFC Divisional playoffs.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Jolly |first=Tom |date=December 22, 2022 |title=The Day Franco Harris Performed a Miracle and Inspired an Army |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/22/sports/football/franco-harris-immaculate-reception.html |access-date=June 5, 2024 |website=The New York Times |language=en-US}}</ref>

Bradshaw temporarily lost the starting job to [[Joe Gilliam]] in 1974, but he took over again during the regular season. In the [[1974 AFC Championship Game]] against the [[Oakland Raiders]], his fourth-quarter touchdown pass to [[Lynn Swann]] proved to be the winning score in a 24–13 victory. In the Steelers' 16–6 [[Super Bowl IX]] victory over the [[Minnesota Vikings]] that followed, Bradshaw completed 9 of 14 passes and his fourth-quarter touchdown pass put the game out of reach and helped take the Steelers to their first Super Bowl victory.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Super Bowl IX - Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Minnesota Vikings - January 12th, 1975 |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/197501120min.htm |access-date=June 5, 2024 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en}}</ref>

Bradshaw won his second straight Super Bowl MVP award in 1979 in [[Super Bowl XIV]].

After undergoing off-season elbow surgery (using the alias "Thomas Brady", with [[Tom Brady|the actual Brady]] being six years old at the time),<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://touchdownwire.usatoday.com/2021/03/03/terry-bradshaw-hospital-1983-tom-brady-alias/|title=Terry Bradshaw Entered a Hospital in 1983 Under the Name 'Tom Brady'|work=[[USA Today]]|date=March 3, 2021|access-date=March 3, 2021|archive-date=March 3, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210303151338/https://touchdownwire.usatoday.com/2021/03/03/terry-bradshaw-hospital-1983-tom-brady-alias/|url-status=live}}</ref> Bradshaw was idle for the first 14 games of the 1983 NFL season. Then on December 10, 1983, against the [[New York Jets]], he felt a pop in his elbow while throwing his final pass, a 10-yard touchdown to [[Calvin Sweeney]] in the second quarter of the Steelers' 34–7 win. Bradshaw later left the game and never played again. The two touchdowns Bradshaw threw in what was the final NFL game played at [[Shea Stadium]] (and the last NFL game played in New York City proper to date) allowed him to finish his career with two more touchdowns (212) than interceptions (210).

Bradshaw's retirement came as a surprise to some,<ref name="Retirement" /> and in hindsight unplanned on the Steelers' part.<ref name="30for30">{{cite episode |title=Elway to Marino |series=30 for 30 |network=ESPN |airdate=April 23, 2013 |season=2}}</ref> Before Bradshaw's elbow problems happened, the team chose to pass on [[Pittsburgh Panthers football|Pitt]] quarterback [[Dan Marino]] in the [[1983 NFL draft]] as an heir successor to Bradshaw due in part to head coach [[Chuck Noll]] wanting to rebuild on defense, and according to [[Bill Hillgrove]], the [[Rooney family]] not wanting Marino to face a lot of pressure in his hometown and needing to experience life outside of [[Oakland (Pittsburgh)|Oakland]], where Marino grew up and Pitt is located.<ref name="30for30" /> The player the Steelers drafted instead ([[Gabriel Rivera]]) played only six games before becoming a [[quadriplegic]] following a drunk-driving crash, and Marino's subsequent success with the [[Miami Dolphins]] prompted [[Art Rooney]] to remind his sons daily until his death that the team "should've drafted Marino."<ref name="30for30" /> The decision also set the franchise back at quarterback; while the team eventually returned to being a Super Bowl contender after their rebuilding period during the mid-1980s, they did not have a consistent quarterback until [[Ben Roethlisberger]] arrived in 2004.

Although the Steelers have not officially retired Bradshaw's number 12, they have not reissued it since his retirement.<ref>{{cite web |title=All Players To Wear Number 12 For Pittsburgh Steelers |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/uniform.cgi?number=12&team=pit |website=[[Pro-Football-Reference.com]] |access-date=June 6, 2024 |language=en}}</ref>

Bradshaw was inducted into the [[Pro Football Hall of Fame]] in 1989.<ref>{{cite web |last1=L.A.

In July 1997, Bradshaw served as the presenter when [[Mike Webster]], his center on the Steelers' Super Bowl XIII and XIV title teams, was inducted into the [[Pro Football Hall of Fame]].

In 2006, despite the Steelers being one of the teams playing in the game, Bradshaw did not attend a pregame celebration for past Super Bowl MVPs during [[Super Bowl XL]] in [[Detroit|Detroit, Michigan]]. According to reports, Bradshaw (along with three-time MVP and close friend [[Joe Montana]]) requested a US$100,000 guarantee for his appearance in the Super Bowl MVP Parade, and associated appearances. The NFL could not guarantee that they would make that much, so refused. A representative for Bradshaw has since denied this report. After an appearance on ''[[The Tonight Show with Jay Leno]]'' (February 6, 2006), Bradshaw stated that the reason why he did not attend the MVP parade was that he was spending time with family, that he hates the crowds and the Super Bowl media circus, and also that the only way he would attend a Super Bowl is when Fox is broadcasting the game ([[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]] broadcast Super Bowl XL, which is that network's last such game to date), though Bradshaw attended several press conferences in Detroit days earlier. Bradshaw also stated that money was not an issue.<ref>{{Cite web |date=February 6, 2006 |title=Montana, Bradshaw deny missing ceremony over $$ |url=https://www.espn.com/nfl/playoffs05/news/story?id=2321024 |website=www.espn.com |access-date=April 16, 2025}}</ref>

In April 2006, Bradshaw donated his four Super Bowl rings, College Football Hall of Fame ring, Pro Football Hall of Fame ring, Hall of Fame bust, four miniature replica Super Bowl trophies, a helmet, and jersey from one of his Super Bowl victories to his alma mater, Louisiana Tech.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Bradshaw keeps memories, gives rings to alma mater|url=https://www.espn.com/nfl/news/story?id=2404158|work=ESPN.com|date=April 10, 2006|access-date=June 15, 2022}}</ref>

On November 5, 2007, during a nationally televised ''[[Monday Night Football]]'' game, Bradshaw joined former teammates including Franco Harris and [[Joe Greene]] to accept their position on the Steelers' 75th Anniversary All-Time Team.

Bradshaw was promoted into television studio analyst for ''[[The NFL Today]]'' in [[1990 NFL season|1990]] (which he hosted with [[Greg Gumbel]] through the [[1993 NFL season|1993 season]]). In 1994, with the Fox network establishing its sports division with their purchase of NFL TV rights, Bradshaw joined ''Fox NFL Sunday'', where he normally acts as a [[foil (literature)|comic foil]] to his co-hosts. On ''Fox NFL Sunday'', he hosts two semiregular features, ''Ten Yards with TB'', where he fires random questions at an NFL professional, and ''The Terry Awards'', an annual comedic award show about the NFL season. As a cross-promotional stunt, he also hosted two consecutive ''Digi-Bowl'' specials in 2001 and 2002 on [[Fox Kids]], providing commentary from the ''NFL on Fox'' studio in-between episodes of ''[[Digimon: Digital Monsters]]''; the 2002 special was the final one as the Fox Kids block ended the same year. He appeared on the first broadcast of ''[[NASCAR on FOX]]'', where he took a ride with [[Dale Earnhardt]] at [[Daytona International Speedway]] the night before Earnhardt was [[Death of Dale Earnhardt|killed in a last-lap crash]] in the [[2001 Daytona 500|Daytona 500]].

Bradshaw was married for the fourth time, on July 8, 2014, to Tammy, his girlfriend of 15 years.<ref>[https://www.post-gazette.com/ae/tv-radio/2020/01/29/Terry-Bradshaw-Bradshaw-Bunch-family-E-reality-Kardashians-Steelers/stories/202001290136 "Terry Bradshaw and his family will star in E! reality TV series 'The Bradshaw Bunch'."] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200205021058/https://www.post-gazette.com/ae/tv-radio/2020/01/29/Terry-Bradshaw-Bradshaw-Bunch-family-E-reality-Kardashians-Steelers/stories/202001290136 |date=February 5, 2020 }} (January 29, 2020).

After his NFL career ended, Bradshaw disclosed that he had frequently experienced [[anxiety attack]]s after games. The problem worsened in the late 1990s after his third divorce, when he said he "could not bounce back" as he had after the previous divorces or after a bad game. In addition to anxiety attacks, his symptoms included weight loss, frequent crying, and [[insomnia|sleeplessness]]. He was diagnosed with [[clinical depression]]. Since then, he has taken [[Paroxetine|Paxil]] regularly. He chose to speak out about his depression to overcome the stigma associated with it and to urge others to seek help.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.usatoday.com/news/health/spotlighthealth/2004-01-30-bradshaw_x.htm |work=[[USA Today]] |first=John |last=Morgan |title=Terry Bradshaw's winning drive against depression |date=January 30, 2004 |access-date=September 15, 2017 |archive-date=September 12, 2005 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050912150616/https://www.usatoday.com/news/health/spotlighthealth/2004-01-30-bradshaw_x.htm |url-status=live}}</ref>

Bradshaw's anxieties about appearing in public, away from the controlled environment of a television studio, led to an unintentional estrangement from the Steelers. When team founder and owner Art Rooney died in 1988, Bradshaw did not attend his funeral. A year later, during his Hall of Fame induction speech, Bradshaw made a point of saluting his late boss and friend, pointing to the sky and saying, "Art Rooney&nbsp;...&nbsp;boy, I tell you, I loved that man."<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.profootballhof.com/players/terry-bradshaw/enshrinement/ |title=Terry Bradshaw Enshrinement &#124; Pro Football Hall of Fame Official Site |website=www.profootballhof.com}}</ref>

Still, Bradshaw never returned to [[Three Rivers Stadium]] for a Steelers game. When the last regular-season game was played there on December 16, 2000, against the [[Washington Commanders|Washington Redskins]], Bradshaw was with the ''Fox NFL Sunday'' crew, doing their pregame show aboard the aircraft carrier {{USS|Harry S. Truman}}, while Fox covered the game live. Bradshaw expressed regret that he could not be there, but later said privately that he did not feel he could face the crowds. Not until September 2002, when fellow Hall of Fame teammate and longtime friend [[Mike Webster]] died, did Bradshaw finally return to Pittsburgh to attend his friend's funeral.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://old.post-gazette.com/localnews/20020928webster0928p4.asp |title=200 offer final tribute to Steelers' Webster |website=old.post-gazette.com |access-date=December 1, 2021 |archive-date=December 1, 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211201020445/http://old.post-gazette.com/localnews/20020928webster0928p4.asp |url-status=dead}}</ref>

In October 2002, Bradshaw returned to the Steelers sideline for the first time in 20 years for a Monday night [[2002 Pittsburgh Steelers season#Week 7: vs. Indianapolis Colts|game between the Steelers and the Indianapolis Colts]].<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.espn.com/nfl/news/2002/1021/1449156.html |title=ESPN.com: NFL - Patched up: Bradshaw cheered upon Pittsburgh return |website=[[ESPN]]}}</ref> In [[2003 NFL season|2003]], when the Steelers played the 1,000th game in franchise history, Fox covered the game at [[Heinz Field]], and Bradshaw returned to cover the game. In addition to appearing to take his position on the Steelers All-Time Team in [[2007 NFL season|2007]] as part of the team's 75th-anniversary festivities, he also was on the sideline alongside a number of his teammates such as Mean Joe Greene and Franco Harris for the game against the [[Baltimore Ravens]] on November 5.<ref>{{Cite news |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2007/11/06/sports/football/06nfl.html |title=Roethlisberger's 5 Touchdown Passes Propel the Steelers |agency=Associated Press |newspaper=The New York Times |date=November 6, 2007}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.seattletimes.com/sports/seahawks/mnf-big-ben-clocks-ravens-defense-with-5-td-passes/ |title=MNF &#124; Big Ben clocks Ravens' defense with 5 TD passes |agency=Associated Press |date=November 6, 2007 |website=The Seattle Times}}</ref> Despite those appearances, Bradshaw's appearances at Steelers functions have remained relatively rare compared to his Hall of Fame teammates from his playing days.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Marczi |first=Matthew |date=April 10, 2020 |title=Terry Bradshaw on Pittsburgh: I Love Going Back To The City |url=https://steelersdepot.com/2020/04/terry-bradshaw-on-pittsburgh-i-love-going-back-to-the-city/ |website=www.steelersdepot.com |access-date=February 20, 2025}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Klinger |first=Jacob |date=April 14, 2020 |title=Terry Bradshaw wants to come back to Pittsburgh, also has reasons why he hasn't:report |url=https://www.pennlive.com/steelers/2020/04/terry-bradshaw-wants-to-come-back-to-pittsburgh-also-has-reasons-why-he-hasnt-report.html |website=www.pennlive.com |access-date=February 20, 2025}}</ref>

Politically, Bradshaw is a long-time supporter of the [[Republican Party (United States)|Republican Party]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://thehill.com/capital-living/20-questions/20860-20-questions-with-mike-ditka-and-terry-bradshaw |title=20 Questions with Mike Ditka and Terry Bradshaw |first=Ashley |last=Perks |date=June 18, 2008 |work=[[The Hill (newspaper)|The Hill]] |access-date=January 17, 2012 |archive-date=November 1, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111101032145/http://thehill.com/capital-living/20-questions/20860-20-questions-with-mike-ditka-and-terry-bradshaw |url-status=live}}</ref> In 2012, he went on record on ''[[Fox News]]'' as supporting the candidacy of [[Newt Gingrich]] for the Republican presidential nomination.<ref name="foxnewsinsider.com">{{cite web |url=http://insider.foxnews.com/2012/01/04/nfl-analyst-terry-bradshaw-talks-newt-gingrich-tim-tebow-nutrisystem |title=NFL Analyst Terry Bradshaw Talks Newt Gingrich, Tim Tebow & Nutrisystem |date=January 4, 2012 |publisher=Fox News |archive-url=https://archive.today/20160417222530/http://insider.foxnews.com/2012/01/04/nfl-analyst-terry-bradshaw-talks-newt-gingrich-tim-tebow-nutrisystem |archive-date=April 17, 2016}}</ref> In the same interview, he also labeled linebacker [[Terrell Suggs]] "an idiot" for making comments critical of [[Denver Broncos]] quarterback [[Tim Tebow]]'s public remarks about his Christian faith, saying Suggs "better be careful; if I were him I'd be on my hands and knees tonight asking for forgiveness because that's totally unacceptable."<ref name="foxnewsinsider.com"/>

Bradshaw has made statements critical of [[President of the United States]] [[Donald Trump]]. During a 2017 episode of ''FOX NFL Sunday'', Bradshaw, while not condoning NFL players kneeling during the national anthem, stated, "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.

===Health===
In September 2022, after viewers expressed concern during his appearance on ''Fox NFL Sunday'', Bradshaw revealed he had been treated for [[bladder cancer]] and [[neck cancer]] between 2021 and 2022.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Bates |first=Daniel |date=June 4, 2024 |title=NFL World Reacts To Terry Bradshaw's Scary Personal News |url=https://thespun.com/more/top-stories/nfl-world-reacts-to-terry-bradshaws-scary-personal-news |access-date=June 5, 2024 |website=The Spun |publisher=The Arena Group |language=en}}</ref>

===Relationship with Chuck Noll===
While Bradshaw never had any problems with the Rooney family, he had a complicated relationship with Steelers head coach [[Chuck Noll]]. Noll and Bradshaw had an uneasy relationship during his playing days, with Bradshaw stating that he felt that Noll was too hard on him and never liked him, though the two made peace (at least publicly) before Noll's death in 2014.<ref name="Noll">{{cite web|url=https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/terry-bradshaw-says-he-will-never-talk-about-chuck-noll-again/|title=Terry Bradshaw says he will never talk about Chuck Noll again|first=Bryan|last=DeArdo|publisher=[[CBSSports]]|access-date=April 10, 2018|archive-date=October 20, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171020032251/https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/terry-bradshaw-says-he-will-never-talk-about-chuck-noll-again/|url-status=live}}</ref>

In an interview with [[NFL Films]] in 2016 for an episode of ''[[A Football Life]]'' about Noll, Bradshaw felt that they had too much of a culture clash with their personalities. Bradshaw also stated that Noll belittled him constantly and that Bradshaw wanted [[Reinforcement#Positive reinforcement|positive reinforcement]] instead of "being grabbed at".<ref name="Chaz">{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ut7cMCkIAg4|title=Terry Bradshaw "I Respected Him, but I Didn't Like Him" - Chuck Noll: A Football Life|publisher=NFL Films|date=November 25, 2016|access-date=April 10, 2018|via=[[YouTube]]|archive-date=December 21, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161221120304/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ut7cMCkIAg4|url-status=live}}</ref> In the same episode, however, former Steelers public relations director Joe Gordon characterized the animosity as "a one-way street," with former teammate [[Jack Ham]] adding that Noll "insulated" Bradshaw from certain issues while taking a "rest of us be damned" approach with the other players.<ref name="Chaz"/>

In an archival interview, Noll described his relationship with Bradshaw as "professional" and "business-like" and that his personality needed to conform with the team, adding, "it worked, even if Bradshaw didn't like it."<ref name="Chaz" /> Nonetheless, Bradshaw chose not to attend Noll's funeral despite being in Pittsburgh at the time.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Starkey |first=Joe |date=February 7, 2017 |title=Starkey's Mailbag: Did Terry Bradshaw take a shot at Chuck Noll? |url=http://www.post-gazette.com/sports/joe-starkey/2017/02/07/terry-bradshaw-chuck-noll-bill-belichick-greatest-coach-nfl-history-super-bowl-51/stories/201702070147 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171019220011/http://www.post-gazette.com/sports/joe-starkey/2017/02/07/terry-bradshaw-chuck-noll-bill-belichick-greatest-coach-nfl-history-super-bowl-51/stories/201702070147 |archive-date=October 19, 2017 |access-date=April 10, 2018 |newspaper=[[Pittsburgh Post-Gazette]]}}</ref>

==Television and film career==
Bradshaw has appeared in numerous television commercials. The most recent was the series of live ads for [[Tide (brand)|Tide]] detergent along with his Fox Sports co-host [[Curt Menefee]], where Bradshaw shows up with a shirt stain on what appeared to be live TV from the Fox broadcast booth at Super Bowl LI and then washes it with Tide at the house of [[Jeffrey Tambor]]. The teasers leading up to the Super Bowl showed Tambor initially taking his shirts to [[Rob Gronkowski]]'s dry cleaners, only to see the sleeves get ripped out. Near the end of the Super Bowl, Menefee spills coffee on his shirt, but Tambor, who is watching on TV, refuses to help out.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Pollack |first=Judann |date=February 6, 2017 |title=The Big Spill: How Tide Pulled Off its Super Bowl Surprise |url=http://adage.com/article/special-report-super-bowl/tide-pulled-super-bowl-surprise/307852/ |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170208154537/http://adage.com/article/special-report-super-bowl/tide-pulled-super-bowl-surprise/307852/ |archive-date=February 8, 2017 |access-date=February 8, 2017 |website=Ad Age}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=Super Bowl Ad: Tide |url=https://www.wsj.com/video/super-bowl-ad-tide/95923D8C-1270-4CAE-A921-A0825A10902E.html |website=www.wsj.com |access-date=January 31, 2019 |archive-date=April 23, 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210423162143/https://www.wsj.com/video/super-bowl-ad-tide/95923D8C-1270-4CAE-A921-A0825A10902E.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

He also appeared on ''[[Malcolm in the Middle]]'' with [[Howie Long]] as the trashy coach of a women's ice hockey team. He hosted a short-lived television series in 1997 called ''Home Team with Terry Bradshaw''.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Littleton |first=Cynthia |date=November 10, 1997 |title='Home Team' on sidelines |url=https://variety.com/1997/tv/news/home-team-on-sidelines-1152/ |access-date=June 5, 2024 |website=Variety |language=en-US}}</ref>

In addition to his television work, Bradshaw has appeared in several movies, including a part in the 1978 film ''[[Hooper (film)|Hooper]]'', which starred [[Burt Reynolds]], [[Jan-Michael Vincent]], and [[Sally Field]], and made an appearance in the 1981 film ''[[The Cannonball Run]]''.

Bradshaw appeared on [[Jeff Foxworthy]]'s short-lived sitcom ''[[The Jeff Foxworthy Show]]'' as a motivational speaker for people needing to change their lives. [[Bill Engvall]]'s character is affected by Bradshaw's rantings about witchcraft and voodoo in his pregame warm-ups.

On October 11, 2001, Bradshaw received a star on the [[Hollywood Walk of Fame]], the first NFL player to do so.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://tv.yahoo.com/terry-bradshaw/contributor/205079|title=Yahoo TV|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120928205835/http://tv.yahoo.com/terry-bradshaw/contributor/205079|archive-date=September 28, 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.circle12.com/terrybradshaw.html|title=circle12.com|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080215021659/http://www.circle12.com/terrybradshaw.html|archive-date=February 15, 2008}}</ref>

In 2006, Bradshaw returned to the silver screen in the motion picture ''[[Failure to Launch]]''. He and [[Kathy Bates]] played the parents of [[Matthew McConaughey]]'s character. In one notable scene, he appeared nude, which his own daughters (who were teenagers at the time) did not even know about until they saw the movie's premiere with their grandmother and were half-heartedly warned by Bradshaw just moments before the scene.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=rOqjvTz_S8Q |title=A Football Life: Terry Bradshaw - Youtube |website=[[YouTube]] |access-date=October 27, 2020 |archive-date=April 23, 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210423162145/https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&feature=youtu.be&v=rOqjvTz_S8Q |url-status=live }}</ref>
