Everything is coming up Tiki in New York! Not only will he move into one of the most coveted roles in all of sports radio next month, but Andrew Marchand reports that Tiki Barber is getting a bigger role at CBS this football season.
The former Giants running back will work a full season of games for CBS. It is an increase from years past, when he has been an analyst in the booth on just a limited schedule.
Barber has been paired with Tom McCarthy for the last two seasons. Prior to that, he worked with Beth Mowins. There is no word yet on who his partner will be in 2023.
CBS is making new plans for its part-time booth. Good Morning Football co-host Jason McCourty will take over Barber’s old role as analyst. Marchand reports that McCourty wowed CBS executives last season by calling games for Westwood One on radio with Ian Eagle.
Just like in the Barber house, the McCourty home has been full of good media news lately. Last month, NBC announced that Jason’s twin brother Devin would added to the cast of Football Night in America.
