About Monday Night Football - Broncos vs. Seahawks

This game has a recurring theme of familiar faces in new places — and it doesn’t just affect the guys on the field, either. Also making their season debut in a new home are the duo of Joe Buck and Troy Aikman, who left FOX for ESPN following last season. Lisa Salters returns for her 11th season on the series, the most in “MNF” history. John Parry is welcomed back as the franchise’s officiating analyst.

You’ll also get to experience the “ManningCast,” starring Peyton and Eli Manning, for Week 1. You can watch the brothers dissect the action and talk to guests on ESPN2 or ESPN+ while the game is on. If you prefer the traditional broadcast, simply keep your feed locked to ESPN.

During “MNF” halftimes on ESPN and ESPN2, Suzy Kolber, Booger McFarland, and Adam Schefter will share NFL news and first-half reactions, while Chris Berman returns with “The Fastest Three Minutes” of NFL highlights.
