NextImg:Reporter Taylor Rooks stole the ‘Thursday Night Football’ show

Taylor Rooks stole the spotlight during the Eagles-Vikings game during “Thursday Night Football” on Prime Video.

The Turner Sports broadcaster, 31, was elegant as ever in a cropped pink blazer and matching pleated skirt while reporting on the sidelines at Lincoln Financial Center, where the Eagles defeated the Vikings 34-28 in Week 2.

Rooks, who also serves as broadcaster for Bleacher Reporter and NBA TV, wore a black tank top and pointed black heels.

The former SNY broadcaster took to Instagram and shared a clip of her introducing her pre-game interview with Vikings wide receiver, Justin Jefferson, which had her 600,000-plus Instagram followers gushing over her pink ensemble in the comments.

“You look amazing,” one user wrote. “We need the outfit details.”

Rooks’ outfit was courtesy of Self Portrait, according to her stylist, who shared the details about her “Barbie” moment in a “get ready with me” TikTok video the broadcaster shared on Thursday.

Others commended Rooks on a job well done with her interview with Jefferson.

Fellow sports broadcaster, Monica McNutt, who is an analyst with ESPN, wrote, “Good stuff here.”

Rooks joined Prime Video’s “Thursday Night Football” in its inaugural season last year, alongside a roster of new and veteran talent — including Fox Sports host Charissa Thompson, legendary play-by-play announcer Al Michaels, Emmy-winning analyst Kirk Herbstreit, reporter Kaylee Hartung, Pro Football Hall of Famer Tony Gonzalez, All-Pro cornerback Richard Sherman, ex-NFL quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick and Super Bowl Champions Andrew Whitworth and Aqib Talib.

Rooks hosts feature pieces, sit-down interviews with players and coaches, and more throughout the pregame, halftime, and postgame shows on Prime Video’s “TNF” broadcast.

She also appeared in a KFC commercial with Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins, which aired ahead of the Week 2 matchup — a 34-28 Eagles victory.

During her “GRWM” video on TikTok, Rooks discussed the Eagles-Vikings matchup while getting her makeup done.

The award-winning broadcaster added that she enjoys taking pilates classes at Solidcore while on the road during the NFL season in a video on her Instagram Story.

Rooks’ makeup artist, Elle Vee, shared a behind-the-scenes video that showed her in action at Lincoln Financial Field — and shared the makeup products he used on her for Thursday’s game.

In her “GRWM” video, Rooks fussed over the blush the makeup artist used, which was Dior Beauty in the shade, “Rosewood.”

Rooks will be back on-air for Prime Video when the Giants visit San Francisco on “Thursday Night Football” in Week 3 on Sept. 21.
