Erin Andrews has made another trip around the sun. She certainly has not done it alone.
Andrews, who co-hosts a podcast with Charissa Thompson, also shares a birthday with her colleague.
The veteran NFL sideline reporter is celebrating her 47th birthday, while Thompson has turned 43.
To celebrate the special day for both women, Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson’s “Calm Down podcast” showed off two younger pictures of them on their Instagram story.
“A very Happy Birthday to our gals,” their podcast, “Calm Down With Erin and Charissa,” shared on their Instagram Story.
Erin Andrews’ contract with FOX Sports is over.
Andrews joined FOX Sports in 2012 and signed a three-year extension in 2022 that lasted until the conclusion of the recent NFL season.
After more than a decade as one of the most recognizable faces in sports broadcasting, Erin is without an employer. Andrews, a mainstay on the NFL sidelines and a seasoned reporter covering college football and MLB, now stands at a crossroads.
In September, Andrews revealed that her contract was up following Super Bowl LIX, as did Charissa Thompson in the aftermath of the NFL’s season finale, in which the Philadelphia Eagles recorded a historic victory over the Kansas City Chiefs.
Speaking on a recent episode of the Calm Down podcast, Thompson made it clear, “No, I am not leaving Fox. “I was never leaving Fox. I don’t know where this took on a life of its own.”
Maybe something is in the works behind the scenes since Fox Sports wished both women a happy birthday despite them technically no longer being employees.
