Despite the amicable nature of Werder’s departure, neither he nor ESPN provided a specific reason for the separation. Werder previously left ESPN in 2017 but returned to the network in 2019. His departure comes amid an increasingly important period in American history, with the upcoming 2024 election being described as crucial by former U.S. national security advisor Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn.
