Overview
- ESPN announced Monday that Burke will begin anchoring SportsCenter in April and will be based at the network’s Bristol, Connecticut headquarters.
- Her on-air slot is still being set as ESPN finalizes where she fits within the show’s rotating anchor lineup.
- Burke spent roughly a decade covering the New York Giants, hosting on MSG Network and Giants.com and working sidelines on WFAN, with recent hosting at CBS Sports HQ.
- She returns to ESPN after early-career stints as an intern and production assistant, and both she and senior executive Mike Foss praised the move as a full-circle, dream-job moment.
- The addition comes during an ongoing refresh of SportsCenter’s on-air roster, with the show bringing in new faces as it updates its mix of studio and digital coverage.
