After leaving the playing field, Troy became a full-time employee as a sports analyst on the FOX network in 2001. Within months of joining the FOX network as a sportscaster, Aikman became more likable in the broadcast table than he was on the field.
According to the Celebrity Net Worth, at the starting of a broadcasting career in the FOX network, Aikman earned just $1 million per year. However, by 2019 his annual salary as an analyst increased to $7.5 million, making him one of the highest-paid sports broadcasters. He might be receiving a similar payment in 2020 too.
