Today is a sad day at Alabama News Network. We are saying goodbye to Alabama News Rising anchor Andrew James.
Andrew is leaving us after five years for a position with WLOS, the ABC station in Asheville, North Carolina. He and his wife are from North Carolina, so this move will get them closer to family.
WLOS is part of the large Greenville-Spartanburg-Asheville TV market, which spans western North Carolina and much of the upstate of South Carolina, so this represents a step up in his career.
Gov. Kay Ivey took time to send Andrew a handwritten note, which he read on the air during his final broadcast this morning. She thanked Andrew for making Alabama a part of his life’s journey.

The Denver Broncos announced Tuesday that they have signed first-round draft choice Patrick Surtain II to his four-year rookie deal.
Surtain, a cornerback chosen ninth overall in the 2021 draft, will reportedly receive just under $21 million. The contract also contains the usual fifth-year option for first-round picks.
Surtain was the second cornerback selected in the draft, being picked immediately after the Carolina Panthers tabbed South Carolina s Jaycee Horn.
Surtain was a consensus All-American for Alabama last season. During three seasons with the Crimson Tide, he intercepted four passes returning one for a touchdown and forced four fumbles.
