Salisbury Stakes Out Houston Gig
• iHeartMedia Houston announced its new weekday lineup for KBME-AM (SportsTalk 790), effective July 9, highlighted by the acquisition of former NFL quarterback Sean Salisbury to handle 3-6pm. In addition to his 10-year NFL career, Salisbury has worked as an NFL analyst on ESPN and served as a consultant for the 2005 remake of The Longest Yard.
Salisbury said, “I’ve been blessed with a full career, and this opportunity to work with iHeart and SportsTalk 790 was too good to pass up in so many ways. I don’t take these great moments lightly. The last five years have been special. I fully expect this new journey to be filled with WOW moments that make our listeners feel like they are getting the show they deserve!”
Salisbury joins a lineup that also features Josh Innes, Matt Thomas and former NFL players Greg Koch and N.D. Kalu. SportsTalk 790 will continue its broadcast partnerships with the Houston Astros, Houston Rockets and the University of Texas football and basketball.
