Devan Kaney has landed a new NFL job, and this one puts her on the Bears beat in Chicago.
Kaney announced that she will join Fox 32 as the Bears reporter, a move that comes months after her unexpected exit from WIP’s Eagles sideline reporting role. Audacy let her go in April as part of broader cuts. Before that, she had worked as a co-host on the station’s morning show and took over the sideline job in 2024 after Howard Eskin.
The Pennsylvania native also recently finished her run at Fox 29, where she had been anchoring sports segments since 2023. Kaney said earlier this year, “I had a blast working at WIP and sincerely enjoyed my time there,” Kaney told the Philadelphia Inquirer earlier this year. “But as the old saying goes, when one door closes, another opens.”
She shared the news on X with a message aimed at Bears fans, introducing herself as the newest reporter for the team’s TV home. The timing lines up with a Bears team that has generated plenty of buzz after a strong run under quarterback Caleb Williams and head coach Ben Johnson. Chicago went 11-6 last season and reached the Divisional Round.
Kaney will begin covering the Bears ahead of the 2026 season, which opens September 13 against the Panthers. Even with the move, she plans to keep hosting her Phillies podcast, “Werth Talking About.”
She also made clear that her time in Philadelphia meant a lot to her. Kaney spoke positively about her colleagues and supporters there, and she pointed to the difficulty of career changes while crediting her community and family for helping her through it.
Kaney had been with WIP since 2022, and her sideline work became a familiar part of Eagles broadcasts. Her departure in April caught plenty of people off guard, but she handled the transition with professionalism. Now she’s headed to a major market and a team drawing serious attention, with Fox 32 set to feature her coverage of the Bears’ players, games and daily developments.

Jets Suddenly Linked To A Quarterback Move That Could Matter
The quarterback picture behind Andy Dalton has become a little more interesting for Philadelphia, with Tanner McKee now drawing trade speculation as teams look around for depth help. McKee is in the final year of his rookie deal, which gives the Eagles a straightforward decision point: keep developing him as a young reserve or see whether another club is willing to part with a draft pick to get him.
One team that could fit the bill is the Jets, who have been mentioned as a possible landing spot if they decide they want another arm in the room. For Philadelphia, the appeal is obvious because even a modest return would add value, and the market for backup quarterbacks can move quickly once a team starts looking for stability behind its starter.

Saquon Barkleys Eagles Future Suddenly Feels Less Secure
Saquon Barkleys first season in Philadelphia looked like the kind of addition that could anchor the offense for years, with the veteran running back delivering a strong 2024 and helping justify the investment the Eagles made to bring him in. But the conversation around his future has shifted after a quieter 2025, and now his contract structure is starting to matter as much as his production.
The Eagles already have a backup in Tank Bigsby, and they are juggling other major financial choices as several key players move toward extension talks. Barkley still has guaranteed money ahead of him, along with an option bonus later in the deal, which means Philadelphia has to decide whether the next chapter is a continuation of the partnership or a harder business decision than anyone expected when he arrived.

These Eagles Camp Names Could Shake Up The 53-Man Race
Training camp has a way of turning practice-field buzz into real roster pressure, and this Eagles group has several names worth watching once the pads come on. Na Brown flashed speed in minicamp and could keep pushing in the WR2 conversation on deep concepts, while Bigsby looks like the kind of back who can give the offense a physical changeup behind Saquon Barkley. Add in Young, who is trying to carve out a bigger role on the defensive line, and Kendall, who could get a long look in the interior mix, and there are already a few jobs that feel far less settled than they did in the spring.
Pulley is another player who could make things interesting if he keeps showing up around the ball, because undrafted safeties can force their way onto a roster fast when they create turnovers. Even the depth chart questions at guard and wide receiver have a little extra edge here, since the Eagles have a history of camp standouts who turn heads before the real decisions arrive. The names are lining up, the opportunities are there, and camp should tell us which of these players are just interesting bodies and which ones can actually change the 53-man race. [Read more 🡒]
