And scene! After 3 incredible years in DC, it’s time to move on. My last official day will be Sunday’s Redskins game. I can’t thank everyone enough for making DC feel like home. I’ve loved every minute of it & will look back fondly on all the amazing memories made here!

This will be an opportunity for Burruss to break onto the scene on the national level as a member of a platform with support. CBS remains high on CBS Sports HQ, its 24/7 streaming sports news network. The service is often promoted on the network's most-watched games. It's branded as the opposite of what sports debate television is, going more in the direction of, "Want more highlights and less talk?"
