Jenny Dell, a Connecticut native and UMass alumna, once had dreams of being a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Model.
As the sideline reporter for CBS’s lauded Southeastern Conference college football broadcasts, Jenny Dell is used to having work trips on the weekends through the fall and winter.
The 38-year-old is one of the top sideline reporters in the game, and despite her age, she continues to keep her body in tip-top shape.
In an effort to get the attention of Sports Illustrated, she took to social media back in 2018 and posted herself in a two-piece white bikini somewhere on a beach.
Jenny Dell could be seen giving her best model pose as she looked up at the sky.
“Patiently waiting for @SI_Swimsuit to call…” she wrote back in 2018.

At the time, she was 32, but her body has only gotten better with age as shown by her pictures on Instagram.
Jenny Dell found the love of her life in 2012 while covering the Boston Red Sox in her first major broadcasting role.
At the time, she became enamored with third baseman Middlebrooks, and they began dating that year. Eighteen months later, they were engaged and now have two daughters. They were later married in a Tuscan-inspired venue outside of Scottsdale, Arizona, in 2016.
Dell explained at the time: “We had one weekend out of the entire year to get married, and it just happened to fall on Valentine’s Day.’”
Jenny Dell Did Not Originally Pursue a Career In Broadcasting
Dell currently covers NFL games and college games for CBS Sports.
Her being here is remarkable as she didn’t actively pursue a career in broadcasting until after college.
She studied at the University of Massachusetts and earned a degree in Hospitality and Tourism. That would open the door for Jenny Dell to work in the production department on Countdown Daily at ESPN.
Jenny Dell has proven to be a fan favorite after covering college basketball, college football, and the NFL for the network.
