ESPN offered her a contract to continue hosting First Take, but will leave ESPN at the end of the year: https://awfulannouncing.com/espn/molly-qerim-first-take-host-leaving-network.html It will be interesting to see who might take over in 2026, considering how bombastic Stephen A. Smith is in general. Of course, every week we also have to hear the Radio Hall of Famer in Christopher "Mad Dog" Russo. |

Stephen A. Smith confirmed the news Tuesday morning: https://x.com/awfulannouncing/status/1967956598954823949 Molly posted her goodbye to the show on her Instagram Story. She will definitely be missed: https://awfulannouncing.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/94/2025/09/img_5805-591x1024.jpg |

Who else besides Stephen A. could replace Molly as full-time host of FT? I am hoping for either Shae Peppler Cornette or Courtney Cronin: https://awfulannouncing.com/espn/5-potential-replacements-molly-qerim-first-take.html |

Stephen A. Smith, the man with what seems to be thousands of different speaking jobs took to his SiriusXM radio show this afternoon and he went into more detail on why Molly decided to leave from The Worldwide Leader: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdU0VRKDJiY |

Molly Qerim leaves being the longest serving First Take host in the show's history. She's been there for a full decade. That's much longer than any of the previous hosts. |

Many fans may not know that Molly actually started her career at ESPN long before she landed on First Take. She first started in 2006 working on digital/mobile efforts before moving over to the news team in 2008. That was a seven to nine year gap, so she definitely paid her dues. What this means for her going forward is anyone's guess. |
