The Cardinals are among the most valued MLB clubs in the league, with Forbes reporting their value at $1.9 billion.

Following her work there, Adams continued to show a desire for working in broadcasts of American Football. She first made her way to the sport through fantasy football shows, as a part of the several SiriusXM shows.

The shows that Kay was a part of include “Fantasy Drive” and “Livin’ the Fantasy”. Sirius XM is known for providing both online radio and satellite radio services which give them a national reach, even extending to Canada.

In 2016, Adams gained her biggest role so far, as she was hired by the NFL Network to become a host for one of their programs. The NFL Network is directly owned by NFL, as a part of their media conglomerate that handles all of the film, television, and digital aspects of the league.

Her work with the NFL Network also led her to be in touch more with her childhood team, the Chicago Bears. Since joining the network, she has hosted special events for the teams, though they have less coverage.

Two years after working on “Good Morning Football”, she was also offered a contract with the subscription streaming service DAZN, which offers various sports programs on demand.
