LOS ANGELES – With only 43 days remaining until FIFA World Cup 2026™ begins, FOX Sports, America’s English-language home for the tournament, today reveals its dedicated lineup of world-class play-by-play announcers, match analysts, reporters and rules analysts anchoring the network’s anticipated presentation.

Carlson becomes the second woman to hold that title in Chicago TV history. She’ll oversee the sports department and continue leading its Bears coverage and hosting “Chicago Sports Tonight.”

The broadcaster will air a total of 70 matches, including all of the USMNT’s games with the remaining 34 games available on their cable network.

Joel Klatt suggested he may no longer cover the NFL draft for NFL Network due to ESPN's acquisition and network conflicts.

Cassie Carlson has been named lead sports anchor at Fox 32 Chicago, becoming the only woman leading a TV sports desk in the city. The latest: Carlson has been filling the role since Lou Canellis left for NBC 5 in January.
