Deadline: ESPN’s Wendi Nix Latest On-Air Talent To Exit Network

Story from Deadline:

Wendi Nix, the host of College Football Live, has announced on Instagram that her time at ESPN has ended after 17 years.

“Exactly 17 years ago, I walked into ESPN wide-eyed and excited. This week, I walk out the same way. Grateful, but equally excited about the next chapter. To be continued…” she wrote on the social media network.

ESPN recently laid off about 20 on-air talents. Nix’s contract was expiring and not renewed.

Nix will be replaced on College Football Live by Kelsey Riggs, who joined ESPN in 2019 as a host at the ACC Network.
