*Longtime ESPN NFL insider Josina Anderson is officially out after nearly nine years with the network. 

According to The Spun, the veteran reporter is set to depart after the expiration of her contract this summer. 

As ESPN’s first female NFL, Anderson served up a league topics and notable interviews, and she was a regular on “Sunday NFL Countdown,” “NFL Live,” and “SportsCenter.”

She previously worked as a reporter with Fox 31 in Denver for six years. 

So who will take over her role at ESPN?

As noted by Yahoo, “network veterans Field Yates, Jeremy Fowler, Dan Graziano and Dianna Russini will help fill the void  as well as newcomer Kimberley Martin,” the outlet writes. 

Per the Post’s Andrew Marchand:

It is unclear what is next for 41-year-old Anderson. Over her nearly nine years with ESPN, she has had some good gets, including a sit down with Antonio Brown this year.

However, she ran into trouble at times with ESPN executives. After the Myles Garrett incident in which the Browns defensive lineman hit Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph with Rudolph’s helmet, Anderson tweeted, “I would bet Myles Garrett will say he heard Mason Rudolph call him something egregious. Never seen Garrett act like that, ever.”

She also apologized for tweeting an image in which she said Rudolph grabbed Garrett in a private area, explaining that other angles proved she was incorrect.
