As previously reported by Front Office Sports, Joy Taylor was sidelined for two weeks from FS1 due to a supposed “infraction.”
Neither the network nor Joy revealed the reason for its decision. It’s important to note that she was removed from the air a few weeks after she was accused of having sexual relationships with coworkers.
On Tuesday, she made her return to the show, and one host immediately had something to say.
FS1: Amid Joy Taylor Sexual Allegations, Host Makes Remark In First Show Back (Report)
Taylor, who hosts popular sports talk show ‘Speak’, wasn’t seen on the network after a shocking report claimed she’d been suspended:
While neither party made any public comment on the issue, Front Office Sports reported last month that Fox Sports had shelved Taylor just weeks after she was accused of using sexual relationships with colleagues to further her career in a bombshell lawsuit.
Yet amid speculation over her future, Taylor was back on air Monday after making her long-awaited return to ‘Speak’.
The 38-year-old went with a revealing pink outfit for her first appearance back on the show, where she featured alongside regular stars Keyshawn Johnson, Paul Pierce and Michael Irvin.
After she opened the show and asked how the panel was doing, Irvin said in a hint to her recent absence: ‘We are better now!’
Here is the full video.
Since Taylor’s return, fans have been letting her have it on social media:

- “Why in God’s Green Earth would I want to listen to Ms. Taylor? I can’t think of one reason.” one fan asked.
- Another fan stated “Show was actually watchable for 2 weeks.”
-
“Who’d she sleep with to be able to come back?” another fan wanted to know.
This whole dilemma has not gone unnoticed by Taylor’s former colleagues at FOX:
“Sleeping with Emmanuel Acho? I’ve heard that before. Multiple times, as recent as a week or two ago,” Marcellus Wiley said. “Part of the reason it was suggested that they do a show together is because of these allegations in the lawsuit that they were sleeping together, conspiring to get that to go. Conspiring with Charlie, conspiring with Emmanuel Acho, ‘let’s make this work.’ What is crazier is, how they split apart… why did they go on different shows they say? Relationship went sour.”
Eventually, Fox Sports will have to address the allegations surrounding its workplace. Until then, it’s business as usual for Taylor.
