Jenny Taft is still several weeks away from being back on the sideline covering college football. Nonetheless, the FOX Sports sideline reporter is finding ways to go viral.
In 2017, FOX Sports named Taft its No. 1 sideline reporter for its college football coverage. She works alongside Gus Johnson and Joel Klatt every Saturday during the fall.
Well before Taft cemented her status as one of the best college football reporters, she was the moderator for FS1’s “Undisputed” with Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe.
“Taft commenced her broadcasting career in her native Minneapolis, accepting her first position with FOX as part of the Twin Cities-based regional network FOX Sports North. In that role, she appeared in on-air promos, in-game segments, made appearances at events, participated in community relations and produced digital content. She also worked as a social media reporter during Minnesota Wild and University of Minnesota men’s hockey games, developing interactive content for fans online,” her bio for Fox Sports reads. “In 2013, Taft auditioned for a role at FS1 and was hired by the network for its launch, initially as an update anchor at the news desk. Since then, her duties have diversified and expanded immensely.”
Taft has been keeping herself busy by covering the 2025 CONCACAF Gold Cup for FOX Sports.
Earlier this week, Taft shared a video of her getting undressed after a long day of work along with this caption: “Cozy > professional.”
Several people complimented Taft’s cozy look in this viral video.
Taft is no stranger to turning heads with her fashion. In April, she caught people’s attention with her outfit for a UFL game between the Michigan Panthers and Memphis Showboats.
We’d say Taft has time to relax before football is back in the spotlight, but she truly takes no days off.
Since joining FS1 in 2013, Taft has covered Copa America, the FIFA Women’s World Cup, and the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. She truly does it all for the network.
