Ryan Clark agrees to stay at ESPN after contract negotiation issues: Sources

After an outspoken negotiation period where NFL analyst Ryan Clark threatened to leave ESPN, he has verbally agreed to remain at the network, sources briefed on the deal said.

Clark’s previous contract ran out days before the Super Bowl, but the two sides agreed to extend it through the big game and Clark appeared on “SportsCenter” with Scott Van Pelt that night.

ESPN is expected to announce the new deal soon. The network declined comment.

The signing of extensions is generally mundane, but Clark made his displeasure with ESPN’s offer public.

Three days after the Super Bowl, Clark tweeted, “3 years ago I signed an extension with ESPN. I was so grateful for more time. I (was) excited to prove I was worth more, felt I deserved more.
