Erin Andrews has been the No. 1 sideline reporter for FOX’s coverage of the NFL since she joined the network in 2012. Will she retain that status for the 2025 season?

Although there wasn’t a ton of speculation surrounding her, Andrews’ previous deal with FOX actually expired after the 2024 season. That made her a free agent heading into the summer. On Tuesday night, Ryan Glasspiegel and Michael McCarthy of Front Office Sports provided an update on her future with FOX.

According to Front Office Sports, FOX has signed Andrews to a lucrative contract for the 2025 season and beyond. The same goes for her “Calm Down” podcast co-host, Charissa Thompson.

“Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson both started their sports media careers at Fox Sports, became stars at ESPN, then returned to Fox in nationally prominent roles. They co-host The Calm Down with Erin and Charissa podcast/YouTube show. Now both are scoring lucrative contract extensions with Fox before the start of the new NFL season, sources tell Front Office Sports,” Glasspiegel and McCarthy wrote.

The terms of Andrews and Thompson’s contracts haven’t been released yet.

All we know right now is that NFL fans are glad Andrews will be on the sideline for FOX this fall.

“Soooo well deserved,” one fan wrote on X.

“Erin deserves it,” another fan said.

“Big fan of Erin Andrews,” a third fan replied. “Congratulations to her.”

“Fantastic news. Erin is great,” a social media user added.

Andrews will continue to work alongside Tom Brady and Kevin Burkhardt, covering “America’s Game of the Week” throughout the 2025 NFL season.

It was confirmed earlier this year that FOX’s No. 1 crew will call a Super Bowl rematch between the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles in Week 2.
