Erin Andrews and Charissa Thompson aren't going anywhere.

Front Office Sports reports that FOX Sports has signed the two to "lucrative contract extensions" before the start of the 2025 NFL Season. 

Andrews' contract was up after the 2024 NFL season, and she was set to become a free agent for the first time in her career. Her and Thompson even said that they are free for work during the She is Football summit earlier this year.

However, she made it clear that it was just a joke, especially when people starting taking her seriously. 

“No, I’m not leaving FOX. I was never leaving FOX,” Thompson told Andrews on their podcast in April. “I don’t know where this took on a life of its own, where I was hosting my family at the ranch for the past weekend. Four of my family members asked, ‘Well, the place looks great. How are you going to afford it now that you don’t have a job?’ I’m not leaving FOX. I was never leaving FOX. I’m not fired.”

Andrews has been with Fox since 2012, while Thompson has been with the network since 2013. Thompson also works with Amazon Prime Video for Thursday Night Football.
