Rob Woodfork

Senior Sports Content Producer/Sports Anchor

Rob Woodfork is a versatile broadcaster with a broad range of experience.

Rob began his radio career in college as the afternoon drive news anchor for Oakwood College’s WOCG (since changed to Oakwood University’s WJOU) and also DJ’d for the station on weekends. It wasn’t uncommon for gospel music fans in Huntsville, Ala., to hear a song by Take 6 or the Breath of Life Quartet immediately followed by Rob’s voice.

After a brief stint in healthcare, Rob returned to radio to produce and report traffic for Total Traffic Network in the Washington, D.C. market before taking a similar position with Metro Networks in Harrisburg, Penn.

During his five years in Central Pennsylvania, Rob reported news and traffic on some of Harrisburg’s top radio stations, was the morning traffic anchor for FOX43, and covered Penn State football for Radio Pennsylvania.

In addition to broadcasting, Rob has also spent years as a sports blogger for online entities such as Bleacher Report, The Fan Manifesto, and WTOP.com.

Rob brought that versatility back home to the D.C. area in 2011 when he began filling a variety of roles within the WTOP Traffic Center before becoming a fixture on the WTOP Sports desk on Sunday nights and covering the NFL with his weekly NFL Recaps and columns. In 2021, Rob took on the role of Senior Sports Content Producer, which includes duties as producer and host of the D.C. Sports Huddle, nightside sports anchor and continuing to bring his unique perspective on sports-related topics as a columnist for WTOP.com.

So basically, Rob has always taken the WTOP motto “we’re everywhere you are” a bit literally.
