Craig Carton will have a new TV partner as FS1 has once again hired a former ESPNer in David Jacoby, The Post has learned.
In what has been an active offseason for the morning TV sports talk shows, Jacoby joins “The Carton Show” as a co-host.
Jacoby spent more than two decades at ESPN on-air and as a producer.
He most notably teamed up at ESPN with Post columnist and podcaster, Jalen Rose, on “Jalen and Jacoby,” which was a podcast turned TV show.
Jacoby is expected to debut on Monday morning with Carton.
While Carton, who left WFAN this summer to devote himself full-time to TV, will still own the marquee, he and Jacoby will be joined by panelists Greg Jennings, Victor Cruz and Plaxico Burress, among others, in the fall.
FS1 earlier added former ESPNers Keyshawn Jonnson, Michael Irvin and Rachel Nichols to its “Undisputed” program.
Johnson will be Skip Bayless’ co-host, while Irvin, Nichols and Richard Sherman are going to be contributors.
The opening for Johnson occurred after Shanon Sharpe left “Undisputed” and has now resurfaced as part of Stephen A. Smith’s debate club on “First Take.”
Sharpe will be on the program on Mondays and Tuesdays during the football season.
