ESPN says Sean McDonough is moving off ”Monday Night Football” and back to calling college football games for the network.
McDonough had been calling the Monday night NFL game the past two seasons Anthony Castonzo Jersey , paired with Jon Gruden. ESPN will have an entirely new crew working the booth this season, with Gruden having returned to coaching with the Oakland Raiders.
ESPN said in a news release Friday night that McDonough signed a multiyear contract extension. The network says McDonough will do a high-profile college football game weekly throughout the season and call a College Football Playoff semifinal.
McDonough said in a statement, ”Being the `Voice of Monday Night Football’ was one of the great honors of my life,” but he said he missed college football.
With Jaguars guard Andrew Norwell and Womens C.J. Mosley Jersey , more recently, Cowboys guard Zack Martin cashing in, another established interior offensive lineman remains in line for a new deal of his own: Washington guard Brandon Scherff.
As explained by Kareem Copeland of the Washington Post, Scherff is the next guard to get paid big money. The only question is when.
Washington presumably could get Scherff under contract more cheaply by doing it now, and it will undoubtedly get more expensive the longer the team waits. At some point Jamaal Williams Jersey , they could find themselves back in another year-to-year franchise-tag dance, like the one that just ended with quarterback Kirk Cousins leaving as a free agent.
It could make the most sense to pay him after 2018, but for a top-10 pick who has thrived through three seasons, it seems at least a little unfair to keep him south of seven figures for his fourth NFL season.
