COSTA MESA, Calif. -- Former NFL head coach Rex Ryan will call his first game on television with ESPN on "Monday Night football" when the Denver Broncos host the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 1.
Ryan will work with longtime play-by-play commentator Beth Mowins, the first women to call a regular-season game in the NFL since 1987, when Gayle Sierens did play-by-play for a Seattle Seahawks-Kansas City Chiefs matchup that aired regionally.
Of course, Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn worked with Ryan when he served as a head coach for the New York Jets and Buffalo Bills for eight seasons.
