KIMMI CHEX. 

Kimmi Chex is rewriting the rules of sports media. She began her career as a business analyst in the NFL’s prestigious Junior Rotational Program, quickly proving that a sharp understanding of the business side of sports could translate to an equally sharp on-camera presence. By 2020, she made the leap to full-time host on NFL Network, where she now delivers bold insights and dynamic coverage of the league’s biggest events—from the Super Bowl and NFL Draft to the Combine and beyond.

 

Chex’s career is a case study in versatility and innovation. With a natural gift for storytelling and a background rooted in business analytics, she’s carved out a lane entirely her own—earning nods from Forbes’ 30 Under 30, The Athletic’s 40 Under 40, and Front Office Sports’ 25 Under 25.

 

A graduate of the University of Iowa with a degree in Journalism & Mass Communication and a Certificate in Critical Cultural Competence, Chex brings both intellectual depth and cultural fluency to every conversation. She’s not just covering the game—she’s redefining how it’s seen. 

 

Beyond the NFL, Chex is a sought-after live-event host and panelist, with extensive experience leading conversations on major stages, moderating at conferences, business off-sites, and more. She is also a Board Member at United WE, a non-partisan national non-profit focused on women’s civic and economic engagement.
