Top candidates for ESPN’s next Monday Night Football broadcast booth
By Jake Starr
Hannah Storm and Suzy Kolber
Could an all-female Monday Night Football crew be in the cards? It is certainly a very intriguing possibility. Considering all the options ESPN has, Hannah Storm and Suzy Kolber would be extremely good options.
Previously, Beth Mowins worked the second Week 1 Monday Night Football games in 2017 and 2018. So, precedent is there for ESPN to give the job to Storm and Kolber. Both are some of the most talented personalities on ESPN and definitely deserve deep consideration.
Storm joined ESPN in 2008 and has held a variety of roles since then. She has served as the host for SportsCenter and countless ESPN NFL shows as well. Storm has play-by-play experience as well. She was joined by Andrea Kremer in 2018 to call Thursday Night Football for Amazon Prime.
Kolber joined ESPN in 1993, but joined the network for good in 1999. She hosts SportsCenter for the network and has served as a sideline reporter for Monday Night Football, so she has experience in working the network’s premiere game.
Could Storm and Kolber be the new voices of Monday Night Football? That remains to be seen, but it would be a wise decision for the network to go that direction.
