Eagles announcer Merrill Reese signs new WIP contract - Inquirer
If you’re among the thousands of Eagles fans who mute their television each week to hear Merrill Reese call the game on WIP-FM, you’re in luck. Reese, the radio voice of the Eagles for nearly 45 years, announced Wednesday that he has signed a new contract that will keep him in the booth for three more years, through the 2024 season. Terms of the deal were not disclosed. “I will never willingly retire — they will have to remove me with a crane, because this is what I love doing more than anything else in the world,” Reese told WIP host Angelo Cataldi, who is retiring at the end of this year.
