ESPN lost a giant today.

An absolutely devastating day. Mort was one of the greatest reporters in sports history, and an even better man. Sincerest condolences to his family, and all who knew and loved him. So many did. Mort was the very best. He will be forever missed and remembered.

What an honor it was to produce this tribute to Mort when he was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2016. Rest in peace, Mort. 💔🕊️
