Terry Bradshaw’s Latest Jaw-Dropping Admission Has Everyone Scratching Their Heads
This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.

Terry Bradshaw has been on TV for a while, so he’s said a lot of things that have left viewers stunned. Still, it’s likely that his wildest claim ever was the one he made this past Sunday.
Bradshaw is, of course, a Pittsburgh Steelers legend. The former quarterback won four Super Bowls while calling his own plays, something he was keen to remind Tom Brady of during a recent rant. He spent 13 years with the franchise and is one of its most recognizable icons.
Head coach Mike Tomlin is among those icons, having led the Steelers to a Super Bowl back in 2009. He is synonymous with Pittsburgh and has been in charge of the team for nearly 20 years.
Be that as it may, Bradshaw has never met him. That’s according to the 77-year-old himself.
Bradshaw was a looming figure on FOX’s football coverage on Sunday, as has been the case for decades, when he revealed that he had never met the Steelers HC.
How Has Terry Bradshaw Never Met Mike Tomlin?

We don’t blame anyone for thinking he was toying around with the truth. His co-hosts, Curt Menefee, Howie Long, and Michael Strahan were all perturbed. He had already given Strahan reason to back up recently… this may have been too much.
Tomlin, after all, has been one of the NFL’s best coaches, not to mention the longest-tenured. So Bradshaw claiming to have never met him was definitely hard to believe.
This sentiment was also prevalent on social media.
“Wait, how can Terry Bradshaw have never met Mike Tomlin?” someone asked.

“Did Terry Bradshaw just say he’s never met Mike Tomlin? Why is this shocking to me? there’s got to be a reason for this. Two legends from the same franchise?” another user asked.

If Terry Bradshaw is being truthful here, it’s not something that will be very hard to remedy.
