Looks like wife dumping Tiki Barber is about to be out of a job.
Sources told The Post yesterday that Tiki's lucrative contract with NBC's "Today" show -- whose 10 a.m. hosts Hoda Kotb and Kathie Lee Gifford talked about the scandal yesterday -- could soon end.
An NBC source said, "Barber signed with NBC for a lot of money, up to $2 million, which is a great deal more money than their other correspondents earn.
"But he proved to be a disappointment on screen, and he has recently been used less and less. His contract is up for renewal soon, and this is a good excuse to get rid of him."
A "Today" rep refused to comment, but a source said, "Tiki Barber is currently a 'Today' show contributor."
Barber's agent, Mark Lepselter said, "Tiki has a contract with NBC, and I've heard nothing to the contrary."
Lepselter also said that Barber -- who in the past has fumed about how his dad abandoned him and his twin brother Ronde as kids-- "hasn't abandoned his family."
"This guy is a very active father," Lepselter said, noting that Barber spent his 35th birthday Wednesday playing sports with his and Ginny's two sons, A.J., 7, and Chason, 6.

which will still fall back on his wife and children..
I think Karma is knocking at Tiki's door announcing her arrival....
He's not a good analyst anyway. Quit the Giants and they went on to win the Superbowl the next year and now he leaves his wife that's preggos with twins for a trick! Bryant Gumble wanna be.
The Giants won because he was such a big whining, fumbling the ball, asshole. He was such a negative non team player.
