NBC 5 Chicago lead sports anchor Siafa Lewis is leaving the station for a news anchor job at the CBS affiliate in Philadelphia, the station announced today. Lewis’ last day is Nov. 4.
That station is hiring Leila Rahimi as a per diem for the sports department. She co-hosts the midday show on 670 The Score with Dan Bernstein.
Lewis is returning to his roots. He began his TV career at the NBC affiliate in Philadelphia as the weekend traffic reporter. He graduated from Rowan University in Glassboro, New Jersey, Philadelphia suburb. Lewis joined NBC 5 in May 2014 as weekend sports anchor and reporter.
