Noah Eagle has emerged as a fast-rising name in the world of sports broadcasting, plus he is a second-generation play-by-play announcer as the child of an NFL media personality.
He’s the son of longtime broadcaster Ian Eagle, who’s covered a lengthy share of prominent sporting events from the NCAA men’s basketball tournament to the NFL. The younger Eagle is well-known for his work through NBC’s Big 10 Football coverage.
But while many know his famous surname, few know about Eagle’s net worth.
What is Noah Eagle’s Net Worth?
It is estimated that the elder Eagle earns $20 million as his net worth, so what does the son rake in?
Not much is known about how much Noah pulls in money-wise, as Eagle’s net worth is yet to go public.
However, NBC sports personalities have started with a $100,000 salary to earn up to several million dollars per year.
Considering that Eagle has become the face of the network’s Big 10 coverage and has a role with the NFL coverage, it’s likely his net worth is more in line with the latter.
When Did Eagle Start His Sports Broadcasting Career?
Like father, like son — Ian Eagle is a Syracuse graduate, as is Noah. And like his dad, the junior Eagle got his broadcasting start with the Orange.
He called games for Orange basketball, football, and lacrosse with WAER Radio on the Syracuse campus. That’s where he also served as the network’s sports director. Eagle graduated in 2019.
Eagle, though, went straight into the pros right out of Syracuse.
He became the radio play-by-play announcer for the Los Angeles Clippers in Oct. 2019. Two years later, he landed at NBC and became a part of the 3-on-3 basketball coverage during the Summer Olympics in Tokyo.
Following the Olympics, Eagle went straight into Southeastern Conference football through CBS. He served as play-by-play announcer for CBS Sports’ No. 2 broadcast team for SEC contests, as the network would air doubleheaders. He also handled college football coverage for Fox.
His first real taste of NFL broadcasting came uniquely: Nickelodeon. He joined Nate Burleson and actress Gabrielle Nevaeh Green for a pair of playoff games and a Christmas Day contest aired on the children’s network. All three were also joined by various Nickelodeon characters during the broadcasts.
Then in 2022, Eagle was paired with one of his dad’s former broadcast partners, Dan Fouts, to provide play-by-play analysis of Los Angeles Chargers preseason games. However, his most memorable game involved the biggest comeback ever in NFL history.
He was joined by Burleson in calling the Dec. 17, 2022, contest between the Indianapolis Colts and Minnesota Vikings — the same game that saw the Colts blow a 33-point lead and lose 39-36 in overtime.
Eagle was most recently seen in Paris for coverage of the 2024 Summer Olympic Games. He took on the play-by-play duties for men’s and women’s basketball. Now, Eagle is set to become the voice for “Big Ten Saturday Night” this fall on the NBC network. Their season begins on Saturday, Aug. 31, when defending national champion Michigan takes on Fresno State in Ann Arbor, Mich.
