Ahead of the upcoming 2025 NFL season, Fox has reportedly reached contract agreements with two of its most visible personalities, Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson.
Michael McCarthy and Ryan Glasspiegel of Front Office Sports reported on the Andrews and Thompson extension.
“Now both are scoring lucrative contract extensions with Fox before the start of the new NFL season, sources tell Front Office Sports,” the report said.
There seemed to be little doubt that Andrews and Thompson, who co-host The Calm Down with Erin and Charissa podcast with each other, would both end up back at Fox.
As the Front Office Sports report noted, “When the network announced its 2025 regular season game schedule in May, it posted a graphic on X/Twitter showing Andrews’ face, along with Tom Brady, Kevin Burkhardt, and [Tom] Rinaldi.”

Thompson, meanwhile, said in April that she was not leaving Fox.
Andrews has been at Fox since 2012 and has been the sideline reporter for the network’s top NFL crew since 2014. Thompson, meanwhile, has been with Fox since 2013. She serves as the main host for Fox NFL Kickoff and additionally hosts Thursday Night Football pregame, postgame and halftime shows on Prime Video.
