Steve Levy and Louis Riddick

These two would be an intriguing, and talented combo to take over Monday Night Football. Steve Levy already works countless college games each year and is one of the best in the business. Louis Riddick played six seasons in the NFL and is a staple on countless ESPN NFL shows.

Unlike Fowler and Herbstreit, this pair does not have much experience working together. But, both appear to be a near-perfect fit to work together on Monday Night Football. Reports have even surfaced that these two are the favorites to land the jobs.

Levy has experience working Monday Night Football as well. He worked as the play-by-play broadcaster for Monday Night Football as a part of their Week 1 doubleheader in 2019. So, in terms of experience, Levy leads the race in that category.

Riddick is someone many NFL fans look to for his analysis on ESPN. He is someone who always knows what he is talking about and many believe he would be a massive upgrade over McFarland.

Could these two be the new faces, and voices, of Monday Night Football? That remains to be seen, but the odds are certainly pointing in that direction.
