HAIL MARY: Former Miami Dolphins quarterback Dan Marino's prayers were answered by CBS, which said they won't boot the analyst amidst scandal.

Despite fathering a child out of wedlock with a CBS employee, Dan Marino will still be part of the network’s Super Bowl pregame show Sunday.

“Dan has said all there is to say on this matter and he’ll be in his usual role on our broadcast Super Bowl Sunday,” Jen Sabatelle, a spokeswoman for the network, told USA Today.

The Hall of Famer, who has been a part of CBS’ broadcast team since 2003, had an affair with CBS Sports production assistant Donna Savattere, and had a daughter named Chloe in 2005, according to a report.

“This is a personal and private matter. I take full responsibility both personally and financially for my actions now as I did then,” Marino said in a statement.

“We mutually agreed to keep our arrangement private to protect all parties involved,” the former Miami Dolphins star said.

Marino has four sons and two adopted daughters with his wife, Claire. The couple has been been married for 28 years.
