Pat McAfee’s deal with ESPN is for five years and around $85 million, The Post has learned.

With the contract, beginning this fall, the next chapter of the “The Pat McAfee Show” will air on weekday sports television’s most powerful platforms. It will be on ESPN’s cable channel, on ESPN’s free YouTube channel and on its direct-to-consumer streaming service, ESPN+.

The around $17 million per year deal that ESPN signed with McAfee, includes his weekly spot as an analyst on the iconic “College Football GameDay” and keeping control over all aspects of his show, including if he wants to have guests like NFL Network insider, Ian Rapoport, on. With he and his wife just having a baby girl, McAfee wanted to lessen the headaches of running his business and will hand most of that behind-the-scenes busy work off to Bristol.

After a spokesman for FanDuel said that no one at the sports gambling platform would be commenting, The Post asked if FanDuel still had an agreement with McAfee? The response was that, “FanDuel will not be commenting on McAfee.”
