Hall of Fame quarterback Steve Young is among today’s layoffs at ESPN.
Young has been with ESPN for more than two decades. He is among approximately 20 on-air personalities who are losing their jobs today, as Disney makes significant budget cuts at ESPN.
The 61-year-old Young began working part-time with ABC and ESPN almost immediately after retiring from the 49ers in 1999, and he has been full-time with ESPN since 2021.
Young was the NFL’s regular-season MVP in 1992 and 1994 and won the Super Bowl XXIX MVP award.
