Professional Career

Bradshaw was the first overall pick in the 1970 NFL Draft by the Pittsburgh Steelers. Thanks to the teams’ close 1–13 records in 1969, the Steelers won a coin flip tiebreaker with the Chicago Bears for the first pick in the draft. Bradshaw was regarded as the consensus No. 1 selection at the time.

After splitting time with Terry Hanratty in his rookie season, Bradshaw became a starter in his second season. During his first few seasons, the 6’3″, 215-pound quarterback was volatile, throwing a lot of turnovers (210 in his career), and was frequently mocked by the media for his rural upbringing and alleged lack of intelligence.

Bradshaw presented Mike Webster, his centre on the Steelers’ Super Bowl XIII and XIV championship squads, as he was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in July 1997. About the fact that the Steelers were one of the teams competing in Super Bowl XL in Detroit, Michigan, Bradshaw did not attend a pregame reunion for former Super Bowl MVPs.

According to sources, Bradshaw demanded a US$100,000 guarantee for his participation in the Super Bowl MVP Parade and related performances, along with three-time MVP and close friend Joe Montana. The NFL declined because they couldn’t promise they’d make so much money.

Bradshaw retired from football on July 24, 1984, and soon after signed a television contract with CBS to become an NFL game analyst, where he and play-by-play announcer Verne Lundquist had the highest-rated shows. Prior to joining them full-time, he worked as a guest analyst on CBS Sports’ NFC playoff broadcasts from 1980 to 1982.

Bradshaw supplemented his salary as a used car salesman during the early part of his tenure with the Steelers, when this was also the day where most NFL players didn’t make enough money to concentrate exclusively on football. Bradshaw sold peanut butter with his name and logo on the bottle in the late 1970s and early 1980s. In the Shreveport market, commercials were shown on television.
