Front Office Sports, which covers sports business, has hired Adam Duerson to be its editor in chief.

He will oversee all editorial content published across FOS platforms and work closely with the editorial team to drive innovation and expansion into new areas of coverage, emerging platforms and original content franchises.

Duerson had spent more than 20 years at Sports Illustrated, where he most recently served as executive editor overseeing all features —enterprise, investigations, sport beats — for SI.com and the magazine.

“The biggest stories in sports are happening off the field and that there’s a scaled, global audience that wants to know it all,” said Adam White, founder and CEO of Front Office Sports, in a statement. “Adam is a dynamic, seasoned editor who will make sure our newsroom is focused, distinct, and accessible, bringing with him both traditional editorial standards and a modern, digital-first approach.”

During his tenure, Duerson conceived and executed SI’s Daily Cover program, bringing magazine-cover-story-worthy journalism to digital scale, while also prioritizing IP and production partnerships with leading studios to create multi-functional content.
