Erica Hill is leaving CBS to join the weekend edition of Today as cohost, according to multiple reports.

She would join Lester Holt, who hosts Weekend Today on Saturday and Sunday, and Jenna Wolfe, who cohosts the Sunday edition. Former Weekend Today cohost Amy Robach jumped to ABC News in May.

Hill was removed as cohost of CBS This Morning in July and replaced by Norah O'Donnell, who was CBS News' chief White House correspondent. Hill first joined CBS' The Early Show in 2010; prior to that she was a correspondent for CNN's Anderson Cooper 360 since 2005.

Spokespersons for Weekend Today and CBS News declined to comment.
