Report: ESPN to Replace Joe Tessitore, Booger McFarland in Monday Night Football Booth

ESPN's Joe Tessitore and Booger McFarland will not return to the Monday Night Football booth, according to The Athletic's Richard Deitsch.

Ahead of the 2020 NFL season, ESPN reportedly plans to feature new talent on Monday nights. Tessitore and McFarland's successors have not yet been decided, but the network is looking to hire internally, per Deitsch.

According to the New York Post's Andrew Marchand, Steve Levy, Dan Orlovsky, Louis Riddick and Brian Griese are leading candidates for the Monday Night Football job.

Despite their Monday Night Football exit, Tessitore and McFarland will reportedly both remain in "prominent roles" at ESPN.
