FOX viewers shared some concern over sideline reporter Pam Oliver after listening to her on Sunday. 

Oliver had a tough assignment on the day as she covered the New England Patriots’ win over the Miami Dolphins in the freezing cold. The conditions in Foxborough must have been challenging for the players, let alone the media personnel down on the field. 

Oliver spoke on camera during the third quarter, and it didn’t take long for fans to start asking whether something was wrong with her. 

Her postgame interview with Patriots quarterback Drake Maye also elicited similar comments and questions. Maye had another solid performance for the AFC East outfit, getting 14 of his 18 attempts on target. He tallied 191 passing yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions. 

He is definitely earning those comparisons to Patriots icon Tom Brady

You can see their interview right below:

“Pam Oliver is either hammered or freezing to death,” someone shared.

“What’s going on with Pam Oliver? She sounds drunk or like she’s coming back from some kind of stroke 🙏🏾,” another asked.

“Is Pam Oliver okay?” another fan asked.

“Why does Pam Oliver sound like she had a stroke? Something is off. She doesn’t even seem enthusiastic about the game,” a user wondered.

“Is Pam Oliver drunk?” someone else asked.

“Someone please run down to the sidelines and check on Pam Oliver,” another post read.

“Is Pam Oliver okay? She did not sound great in that sideline report,” another fan observed.

There is a good reason for Oliver’s appearance on Sunday, and it’s hardly the first time she has attracted concern. She was not drunk or under the influence of anything. 

The veteran reporter previously revealed that she has been dealing with nasty migraine headaches that sometimes cause slurred speech when she’s on the job. 

“It’s caused me to miss a few games over the span of my career because I just couldn’t take the noise and the light and the sickness that comes with that. The nausea and the vomiting,” she told The Athletic back in 2021.

Oliver noted that she has been a lot better in recent years, yet still has migraines around three times a month. 

Unfortunately, they often coincide with her schedule.
