Jason La Canfora leaving NFL Network for CBS

Jcool · 2012-05-10T09:06:33-07:00

Jason La Canfora &rlm; @JasonLaCanfora Wanted to let you guys know that I'm excited to announce starting in July I will be the NFL Insider for CBS. I will be serving in that capacity for @nfloncbs, @cbpsorts and also for the CBS SportsNetwork. Wonder who the new "insider" will be for NFL Network? And now i have another reason not to watch the CBS NFL pregame show.

CBS' hiring of @JasonLaCanfora as an "NFL Today" insider means that Charley Casserly is a free agent. I'm curious to see where he'll land.

Best I could find:

DECEMBER 11, 2010

CBS averaged a 2.9 rating and 4.393 million viewers for The NFL Today pregame show, up 21% and 20%, respectively, from last year (2.4, 3.670 mil), and the highest average since the network resumed NFL coverage in '98. CBS still trails FOX, whose FOX NFL Sunday show averaged a 3.4 (best since 2004) and 5.3 million (best since 2001) through Week 13.
