NFL Network morning program Good Morning Football will be moving its production to Los Angeles, Calif., leaving New York City after parts of eight years in the area. The program will move into the NFL Media headquarters in Inglewood, situated within Hollywood Park near SoFi Stadium. The show, which currently features Jamie Erdahl, Jason McCourty, Kyle Brandt and Peter Schrager, is set to take a hiatus beginning on Friday, March 29 before relaunching later in the summer or the preseason at an exact date to be determined.
Upon the program’s relaunch in Los Angeles, it will add a new two-hour syndicated extension series. This show will have its own title and is not set to air on NFL Network, instead being distributed by Sony Pictures Television. While a deal has yet to be agreed upon, the new series is expected to include multiple syndication partners. This new show will be executive produced by Michael Davies, who currently serves as the executive producer of the popular quiz show Jeopardy!
