Darren Rovell is heading to Bristol.
The sports business reporter for CNBC — and host of Sports Biz: Game On on NBC Sports Network — has announced via Twitter that he will be joining ESPN. He added, "I will also be doing regular business reporting for ABC News, where I will definitely be covering the food & drink biz."
Rovell earned some brownie points in the region last year when he named the Patriots cheerleading squad the best in the NFL.
I am indeed leaving my home for the last 6 years, @CNBC. It was a great place to grow & see how the best in business news do what they do.

I’m thrilled to have reached an agreement in principle with ESPN. No matter how others bash it, Bristol is truly a magical place.
