2018 Broadcast Journalism

Erin Dolan

signed a multi-year contract with ESPN to serve an on-air sports betting analyst.

Dolan will contribute sports betting content across a variety of programs and platforms. She will be a regular on daily sports betting news and information programs, "Daily Wager," "Bet" and the "Daily Wager" podcast, among others.

“During the time I was in college and an active ESPN intern, sports betting was not a career path a broadcast professional would even think of pursuing. It was just too niche,” Dolan said. “Fast forward more than four years later, sports betting content is exploding and I am entering the doors of ESPN once again, but this time as a sports betting analyst. I am thrilled that I get the opportunity to grow my career at ESPN and I am so grateful they are betting on me.”

Prior to rejoining ESPN, Dolan was on-air talent at FanDuel and PointsBet, creating sports betting content across their social channels and various programming. Additionally, she co-hosted a weekly YouTube and Twitch show, “Girls Who Bet,” was part of B/R Betting’s, “The Group Chat,” and hosted “The Early Line” weekdays from 7-9 a.m. ET on SiriusXM.

Before entering the sports betting world, Dolan was a sports reporter at PHL17 in Philadelphia and a sideline reporter for the Philadelphia Wings. She graduated summa cum laude from Penn State in 2018. Dolan will continue to reside on the East Coast with ESPN.
