Erin Andrews' Salary Is Higher Than Several NFL Players

Erin Andrews' NFL sideline reporter salary is actually higher than plenty of the players that she covers.

The 47-year-old NFL sideline reporter, who has worked for Fox Sports since 2012, is the network's No. 1 sideline reporter. She's part of the broadcasting team with Kevin Burkhardt, Tom Brady and Tom Rinaldi. Andrews, who previously worked for ESPN, is arguably the most recognized sideline reporter in recent NFL history.

Andrews spent some time this offseason co-hosting a morning show with Jenna Bush Hager, though she remains committed to her NFL future.

"I had a great time guest co-hosting Today with Jenna [Bush Hager], so maybe one day you'll see me on a morning show," she admitted. "But for now, I'm still looking forward to the NFL seasons ahead."

Andrews, as an NFL sideline reporter, brings in about $2 million per year in salary. That's higher than several notable NFL players:

  • Browns QB Shedeur Sanders makes $1.1 million per year
  • Giants RB Cam Skattebo makes $840,000 per year
  • Rams WR Puka Nacua makes $1 million per year
  • Vikings QB Kyler Murray makes $1.3 million per year

Andrews' net worth is estimated at a big number

Andrews, who launched her own fashion brand, WEAR By EA, has also done broadcasting work for MLB and ABC's "Dancing With the Stars."

Her net worth is estimated at $30 million, according to a report from Reality Tea.

Andrews famously received $55 million in a settlement with a hotel, after a peephole video was recorded by another guest. Andrews likely only ended up with $7 million to $9 million following taxes, lawyer fees and other responsibilities.

The veteran NFL sideline reporter will be back on the air in 2026.
