Booger McFarland may not be in the booth for the 2020 season, but that doesn’t mean he is done with Monday Night Football. According to Bobby Burack of Outkick.com, ESPN is considering swapping McFarland and Louis Riddick’s roles. With Riddick heading into the broadcast booth, that would make McFarland a candidate to be a part of Monday Night Countdown.
ESPN is still finalizing its plans. A new season of Monday Night Countdown begins of the Monday night double header in Week 1. That would be September 14.
If Booger is part of the pregame show, Burack points out that it would be his third Monday night role in as many years. In 2018 he was a sideline analyst, contributing to the call of the game from the much maligned sideline vehicle known as the “Boogermobile.” In 2019 he moved into the booth alongside Joe Tessitore.
Speaking of Tessitore, his future will not feature the NFL. ESPN announced that Joe Tess is going back to college football coverage. He will be paired with Great McElroy this fall.
I saw that ESPN has made a few roster mentions for College Football but have they released the full run down of on air talent for this season yet
