Holly Rowe – $800K

ESPN has Holly Rowe on contract as a sideline reporter, and the network is responsible for contributing to a portion of the $800K that goes into her pockets each year. She covers college football games, and in 2021, she broke the record as the first female Utah Jazz color commentator to cover the team’s match-up against the Sacramento Kings.

Rowe has also profited from covering WNBA on ESPN, Saturday-night football telecasts, and the NCAA Women’s Volleyball Tournaments. She has also offered play-by-play coverage of track and field events for Women’s World Cup matches. While attending Brigham Young University, she lent her talents to the campus TV station as the news anchor.
