CBS Sports Network is a sports-oriented Americandigital cable andsatellite channel that is operated byParamount Global through CBS Sports. Launched as the National College Sports Network in 2002, then renamed as College Sports Television in 2003, CBS's then-parent companyViacom acquired the network in 2005 and later renamed itCBS College Sports Network in 2008. The network had always focused on college sports, but in 2011, CBS rebranded the network asCBS Sports Network as a move to reposition the network to include mainstream sports—including coverage of minor professional sports leagues such as theArena Football League andMajor League Lacrosse, although college sports are still aired frequently by the network.

CBS Sports Radio was asports radio network that launched on September 4, 2012, with hourly sports news updates. It began offering a full 24-hour schedule of sports talk programming on January 2, 2013.^[18] CBS Sports Radio was originally owned byCBS Radio, withWestwood One handling distribution and marketing of the network. Sports radio stations that were owned by Entercom (nowAudacy) andCumulus Media carried part of the full schedule of programming, while eight Entercom-owned stations carry network programming throughout the day. In addition to carriage on terrestrial stations, CBS Sports Radio streamed its programming on the internet.^[18] CBS issued acease and desist order in early April 2024 to all remaining affiliates informing them to cease using the CBS trademark by April 15 (CBS Radio had merged with Entercom in 2017 and CBS/Paramount Global has allowed use of the CBS name and Eyemark logo under a limited license to expire in late 2037; it withdrew permission for the use of the Eyemark by CBSSR at the end of 2019). Since then, Audacy has owned and operated the remnants of the network under the brandInfinity Sports Network, utilizing the name of a forerunner company,Infinity Broadcasting.^[19][20]

On February 26, 2018, CBS Sports launched CBS Sports HQ, a 24-hour streaming sports news channel modeled afterCBS News'sstreaming news channel.^[21]

The online arm of CBS Sports isCBSSports.com. CBS purchased SportsLine.com in 2004, and today CBSSports.com is part ofParamount Streaming. On February 26, 2018, following up on the success of their online news networkCBSN, CBS Sports launchedCBS Sports HQ, a 24/7, online only, linear sports news network. The network focuses entirely on sports news, results, highlights and analysis.^[22] (CBS Sports college sports and golf programming that it distributes over the air is generally made available for free via separate streams, as are a limited number of NFL national telecasts; the remainder requires aParamount+ (formerly CBS All Access) subscription to be viewed online, withCBS Sports Network programming requiring aTV Everywhere subscription.)

On August 31, 2013, CBS Sports rolled out its previous graphics and animation package that was first used in the network's coverage ofSuper Bowl XLVII. Additionally, in compliance with theActive Format Description #10 code, CBS Sports switched to a16:9 aspect ratio letterbox presentation used for all sports programming, including theSEC on CBS and theNFL on CBS broadcasts.

On November 30, 2015, CBS Sports unveiled a new rectangular logo, which premiered on-air during its coverage ofSuper Bowl 50, and was intended to provide consistency between the division's platforms. It replaced an existing logo that had dated back to 1981.^[23][24] In October 2020, CBS announced that all of its major divisions would adopt a unified branding scheme built around the components of the CBS eye logo, a newsonic branding, and TT Norms Pro as a corporate typeface. The implementation of the branding by CBS Sports launched during the lead-up toSuper Bowl LV, which introduced a new on-air graphics package that conforms to the corporate design language.^{[25][26][27][28]}
