Ted Joins

Ted Johnson, a three-time Super Bowl champion with the New England Patriots, is joining Boston sports radio station WEEI as part of a new afternoon show. Johnson will co-host alongside Andy Hart and Nick “Fitzy” Stevens weekdays from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. ET beginning January 21. “Ted not only hoisted the Vince Lombardi Trophy three times as a Patriot, but he also played alongside new Patriots Head Coach Mike Vrabel,” said Mike Thomas, Senior Vice President and Market Manager, Audacy Boston.

“After his playing days, Ted honed his broadcasting skills in Houston and back here in Boston. He has entertaining stories and valuable information that all Boston sports fans won’t want to miss.”

Johnson expressed his excitement about joining the station. “I had the good fortune of playing on some incredible teams in my 10-year career, and now, 30 years later, I’m thrilled to announce I’ll be a part of another great team at WEEI,” he said.

“I’ll never take for granted the relationships I’ve formed and the awesome experiences I’ve shared with the fans here, and I look forward to strengthening those connections through the WEEI airwaves.”

As part of the programming changes, former afternoon show co-host Christian Arcand will transition to hosting nights on weekdays from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. ET. The station’s morning and midday shows, “Greg Hill Morning Show” and “Jones & Keefe,” will remain unchanged.

Stevens, a Massachusetts native, joined WEEI in the summer of 2019 and has hosted shows across every daypart at the station, including “The 6 Rings Postgame Show” with Hart after every Patriots game. “Fitzy has been an asset to the station and we’re excited to expand his role to ‘WEEI Afternoons’ with his knowledge as a die-hard Boston sports fan,” Thomas added. The lineup adjustments come less than five months after Audacy initiated changes at WEEI in an effort to boost ratings and compete with rival station 98.5 The Sports Hub’s popular “Felger and Mazz” show.
