JUST IN: Longtime Sportscaster Rich Eisen Returning to ESPN
Briefly

Rich Eisen is set to return to ESPN as part of a new direct-to-consumer streaming service, which aims to provide full access to the ESPN channel without cable. Eisen, who left ESPN in 2003 for the NFL Network, will bring The Rich Eisen Show to ESPN in the fall. The show, which has recently aired on The Roku Channel, might feature prominently on ESPN Radio as well. Eisen’s deal allows him to maintain ownership and editorial control, similar to The Pat McAfee Show.
Eisen's return to ESPN coincides with their launch of a standalone streaming service, where The Rich Eisen Show is expected to feature prominently.
Eisen's show, now moving from Roku to ESPN, will likely air from noon to 3 p.m. ET and may become an anchor for ESPN Radio.
