Another said: ‘I’m really worried about Pam Oliver something just seems wrong’.
A third commented: ‘Extremely worried about whatever is going on with Pam Oliver.’
A fourth commented that Oliver’s speech sounded ‘slurred’ and another claimed she ‘hasn’t sounded right for some time’.
Fox Sports’ sideline reporter Pam Oliver has sparked concerns for her health among viewers
It is not the first time this season that Oliver has sparked concerns among Fox viewers.
She also troubled fans during an interview with Aaron Rodgers following the Pittsburgh Steelers’ win over the Vikings in Ireland.
Daily Mail has contacted Fox for commented.
It proved to be an eventful afternoon for Oliver as she just about avoided getting wiped out by the Vikings’ star receiver Justin Jefferson.
He was scrambling to the sideline to try and catch a Carson Wentz pass and dived out of play in a failed attempt.
The former LSU player narrowly avoided Oliver, who was standing just inches away from the muscular Vikings star as he leapt for the ball.
Even though Oliver managed to stay on her feet, Jefferson made sure to check that she was okay before running back onto the field for the next play. He even put a tender hand on her leg to offer his apologies.
Oliver has previously revealed that she has suffered from migraines for a ‘very, very long time.’

‘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’s Sports Media with Richard Deitsch podcast in 2021.
She explained that she was forced to pull out of an assignment in Atlanta several years ago due to her health issues.
‘I was minutes from Mercedez-Benz [Stadium]. My driver, I said, you gotta pull over. We were less than five minutes from the stadium. I’m hurling. My head is pounding.
‘And I made the decision right then and there, I’m no good to anyone. There’s no way that I felt like I was gonna get through that game, be productive, help the crew, contribute in any way. So, turned around and I went home. I felt so guilty about that for the longest time, but they really do knock me out of action.’
Oliver explained in that interview that the issue had improved, though she was still experiencing about three migraines per month.
