Update, in answer to the question in the OP: yes, he’s done. Fox Sports confirmed to The Athletic today that Sanchez is “no longer with the network.” > **[Mark Sanchez won't return as Fox Sports analyst](https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46883076/mark-sanchez-fox-sports-analyst-following-oct-arrest)** > > Mark Sanchez will not return as a Fox Sports analyst, the network told The Athletic, as the former NFL quarterback faces trial stemming from his alleged attack on a truck driver last month. ---

Between Sanchez’s story, former Steelers wide receiver [Antonio Brown being extradited back to the U.S. to stand trial for attempted murder](https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46883311/antonio-brown-waives-extradition-return-miami) (after years of increasingly erratic behavior), and the [apparent suicide of Cowboys defensive end Marshawn Kneeland](https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46869849/cowboys-second-year-de-marshawn-kneeland-dies-24) yesterday, recent days do all add more evidence that playing football is as dangerous to the brains and minds of its players as it is to their bodies. ---
