Yahoo Sports has undergone a round of layoffs that included cuts of several longtime contributors, sources told Front Office Sports.

NFL reporter Charles Robinson was among those let go, sources said. Robinson had been a stalwart at the outlet for more than 20 years, spanning many different eras. Charles McDonald also announced on Bluesky that he had been laid off. McDonald joined Yahoo several years ago after previously covering the NFL for the New York Daily News, Football Outsiders, and SB Nation. 

“As evidenced by the last few years, we are investing heavily in our original content and we will continue to do so as we approach the football season,” a Yahoo spokesperson told FOS. “We carefully consider all personnel decisions and sometimes need to make tough decisions to achieve our strategic goals.”

Yahoo has realigned its priorities over the past few years. It built a combat sports hub, Uncrowned, around Ariel Helwani and has emphasized NBA multimedia content with Kevin O’Connor. Within the last year, the outlet has also hired Kelly Iko and Dan Wolken, signed Ross Dellenger and Nate Tice to extensions, and added Taylor Twellman to its World Cup coverage.

In April, Yahoo Sports launched a sports business hub that includes licensed stories from outlets including FOS, Awful Announcing, and Barrett Media.

FanDuel’s media arm is adding a new show for the World Cup featuring three former U.S. men’s national team coaches, the network confirmed to Front Office Sports. 

Gregg Berhalter, Bruce Arena, and Bob Bradley will be part of Coaches Corner, along with host Rob Stone—Fox Sports’s top studio host for the World Cup—for 10 episodes beginning June 1. 

“Major sporting events on the calendar, like the World Cup, present an opportunity for FanDuel to bring fans unique perspectives through original programming,” FanDuel TV SVP and executive producer Michael Shiffman told FOS. “Coaches Corner is the first example of what we expect to become a recurring model around major moments throughout the year.”

The show will strive to provide analysis of matches, strategy breakdowns, and personal storytelling detailing the coaches’ stints with the USMNT. Berhalter coached the national team from 2018 to 2024. Arena’s tenure spanned from 1998 to 2006, with Bradley coaching from 2006 to 2011.

The episodes will air on platforms including FanDuel’s YouTube channel, Tubi, FanDuel Sports Network, FanDuel TV Extra (the platform’s FAST channel), Spectrum SportsNet LA, and MSG. 

The announcement comes months after news emerged that the FanDuel TV Racing linear network, which airs a lot of live horse racing, will be winding down at the end of 2027. Horse racing outlet Paulick Report noted more than 100 jobs will be affected by the strategy pivot. 

Studio shows such as Kay Adams’s Up & Adams and Run It Back—with Michelle Beadle, Lou Williams, DeMarcus Cousins, and Chandler Parsons—will continue to air on the network’s other platforms.
