San Antonio viewers are about to see a new face on their TV screens. But one station's new addition is a face you may have seen before.
Casey Viera, who spent about three and a half years with local CBS affiliate KENS 5, announced on social media on Thursday, October 29, that he'll be making a comeback in San Antonio.
"Happy to share I've returned back to KENS5 as a Sports Anchor," Viera wrote in a post on X. "Thrilled to be back to make more memories in such an exciting time in San Antonio with a place that's given me some of the best times of my career."
According to LinkedIn, Viera was with KENS 5 from January 2022 until May 2025, where viewers saw anchored the 6 and 10 p.m. sportscasts. Viera told MySA his contract with the station timed out amid TEGNA's merger with Nexstar Media Group, though he never wanted to leave because it's the "best newsroom I've ever worked in."
"It was a place that I felt like when I started there, I just gelled immediately. And it's the type of thing, when you're in this field, that doesn't come about a whole lot," Viera said.
