2018 ESPN Monday Night Football Schedule

Hi. Well, the 2018 NFL regular-season schedule was officially disclosed on Thursday night and with that, we now have the schedule for Monday Night Football on ESPN. ESPN will televise MNF for the 13th straight year. MNF enters it's 49th season overall, an franchise that started way back in 1970. ESPN's NFL coverage will begin this year with two preseason games: New York Jets at Washington Redskins (August 16th) and Baltimore Ravens at Indianapolis Colts (August 20th) - both of the games aforementioned will start at 8:00 p.m. ET. ESPN's coverage will start with an MNF doubleheader on Monday, September 10th. The New York Jets and Sam Darnold play the Detroit Lions and Matthew Stafford in the first game (7:00 p.m. ET), and the Oakland Raiders and Amari Cooper host the Los Angeles Rams and Todd Gurley in the second game (10:15 p.m. ET). Overall, ESPN will carry two preseason games (August 16 & August 20), 16 MNF games: Week 1 doubleheader and one game every Monday theirafter (September 10 - December 24), a playoff game (January 5) & the Pro Bowl from Orlando (January 7).

Here's your 2018 MNF Schedule. The announcers for each game except for Week 1 Jets-Lions contest will be Joe Tessitore, Jason Witten, Booger McFarland & Lisa Salters.

Except for Salters, you may notice that the 2018 Monday Night Football broadcast team is brand new. Joe Tessitore becomes the new play-by-play announcer for the series, replacing Sean McDonough, who was moved back to his longtime role of calling college football games for the network. 

With Jon Gruden moving on to become the head coach of then-Oakland Raiders (now Las Vegas Raiders), Gruden was replaced by Booger McFarland (analyst) and Jason Witten (analyst).

All games will kick off at 8:15 p.m. ET, unless otherwise noted.
