In a statement, NBC says Beadle will cover this summer's London Olympics for both NBC Sports and Access, a show in which she'll also do red-carpet reporting for big entertainment events such as movie premieres.
For NBC Sports, Beadle will have role in NFL Kickoff coverage and racing's Triple Crown. For the NBC Sports Network cable channel, there will be "new programming" developed for her.
Said Beadle, in a statement: "I look forward to getting back to New York City and immersing myself in a myriad of NBCUniversal platforms, while trying to kick ass and have some fun along the way."
With TV rights to many big sports events locked up in long-term deals, notable announcers give cable sports nets at least a try to raise their visibility, as the CBS Sports Network did recently by recruiting Jim Rome from ESPN.
