Erin Andrews reveals she is battling a health condition days before her Fox Super Bowl duties with Tom Brady

Maybe the most recognizable face in NFL sideline reporting has dry eye. Erin Andrews revealed her diagnosis with the condition days before she is inside the Caesars Superdome for the Super Bowl.  

Around 38million people have dry eye disease, with Andrews trying to normalize the condition by speaking out about how it is part of her routine on game days. 

The biggest of game days is on Sunday as Andrews is a sideline reporter and an integral part of Fox’s NFL championship broadcast. 

She’ll be heard around the country for the game alongside Tom Brady, Kevin Burkhardt, and Tom Rinaldi. 

‘I just thought it was my eyes being tired,’ Andrews said to Athletech. ‘I thought maybe it was just because I’m looking at my screen so much – my eyes always kind of feel a little scratchy, gritty.’

‘I’m always like wiping them or trying to blink. I just thought that that’s how it was. Turns out, I’m an idiot, and my doctor’s like, “No, that’s dry eye.”‘

‘Like [if you are] constantly rubbing your eyes or blinking or thinking, “Oh, my eyes feel super dry or scratchy” go ask somebody about it because there’s actually something that can relieve your symptoms,’ Andrews said. 

Andrews has worked for Fox Sports since 2012 and has been the network’s top football sideline reporter since 2014. 

Andrews is covering her fourth Super Bowl this season, while doing so along Brady for the first time. 

Brady will be thrust into the biggest ᴀssignment of his young broadcasting career with the Super Bowl. 

The game in New Orleans will be Brady’s last game of his first season working for Fox Sports as a color commentator in his 10-year, $375million contract.
