Aikman Faces Brady-Style Access Rules Amid Dolphins Consulting Role

The NFL will apply Brady-style restrictions to Troy Aikman due to his dual role as ESPN’s Monday Night Football commentator and a Miami Dolphins consultant, limiting his access to team facilities and practices, restricting production meetings (virtual only), and confining interviews to off-site locations, while allowing him to broadcast games involving his own club; the Dolphins’ search for a new GM previously brought Aikman aboard as a consultant, a process that led to Jon-Eric Sullivan becoming GM and Jeff Hafley as head coach.
