Ive created some incredible lifelong memories.
It is the second time Werder has departed ESPN.
He was laid off in 2017 but rejoined the company two years later.
In a statement, ESPN called Werder a mainstay of its NFL coverage.
His journalistic instincts and relationships have benefitted fans throughout the years, the statement continued.
We thank Ed for everything he has contributed and wish him success in the future.
