ESPN anchor Randy Scott was involved in a scary crash on Sunday morning after his car skidded into a concrete median in Connecticut.

The front of Scott's car was ripped open by the collision, with the SportsCenter anchor admitting he was 'really lucky' and 'saved' by his airbags and seatbelts.

Thankfully, the father of three walked away 'without a scratch', despite the serious damage to his career.

'(It) rained so hard, so quickly, I hydroplaned on I-84 and drilled the concrete median,' Scott revealed on social media on Sunday.

In a post shortly after 6am, he added: 'Airbags and seatbelt saved the day. Really lucky to walk away without a scratch'

The SportsCenter anchor also paid tribute to officers of the Connecticut State Police for helping him following the crash.

The accident reportedly occurred at 3:46am, with Scott's Toyota Highlander having to be towed from the scene.

The anchor still managed to arrive at the ESPN studios in time to host SportsCenter alongside Gary Striewski.

But his car is a write-off. 'This one has served me well, it’s earned a break,' Scott added on social media.

He presents SportsCenter:AM which runs from 7am to 10am. He first joined ESPN back in June 2012, having previously worked in Boston, Florida, Georgia and Oklahoma.

Several of his ESPN colleagues posted messages of support following the scary incident, including Dan Orlovsky, who wrote on social media: 'Glad you’re ok buddy'
