ESPN's 2024-25 Monday Night Football Schedule: 25 Games Featuring Multiple Appearances by Super Bowl … – ESPN Press Room

ESPN’s 2024-25 NFL schedule will feature 25 games, headlined by 21 Monday Night Football matchups, the return of the Week 18 Doubleheader Saturday, a Monday night Super Wild Card and  Divisional playoff game. Schedule enhancements return, such as ABC exclusive games and simulcasts, an ESPN+ exclusive game, multiple Monday Night Football games on the same night, flex scheduling and more.
Monday Night Football’s schedule showcases the Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs, the NFC Champion San Francisco 49ers, and both conference runner-ups, the Baltimore Ravens and Detroit Lions, multiple times. The Dallas Cowboys host two Monday Night Football games, and the Buffalo Bills also appear twice, including on the road at the New York Jets.
The 49ers bookend Monday Night Football’s campaign (Week 1 and 17), first by hosting the New York Jets and quarterback Aaron Rodgers, and then punctuating the franchise’s season with an NFC Championship rematch against the Detroit Lions. Overall, the entire Monday Night Football schedule is decorated with the league’s best teams, most popular players, and storylines throughout the season. Highlights:
Monday Night Football’s Joe Buck, Troy Aikman and Lisa Salters Set to Call Third Season Together
Joe Buck, Troy Aikman and Lisa Salters return for their third season of Monday Night Football. For Buck and Aikman, the duo will team up for a 23rd season overall, extending their record as the longest broadcast pairing in NFL history. Salters enters her 13th season on MNF sidelines, the longest-tenured sideline reporter in Monday Night Football history.
Peyton and Eli Return for Fourth Season
Monday Night Football with Peyton and Eli is back for its fourth season, adding an 11th game to their schedule which will begin in Week 1. The remaining schedule will be announced before the start of the season. ESPN and Omaha Productions announced a new contract extension in April, extending the Mannings through the current rights deal.
A Spanish-language telecast will be available for each game via ESPN Deportes.
Breakdown of NFL on ESPN’s Schedule

ESPN’s enhanced schedule is a result of the landmark agreement between The Walt Disney Company/ESPN and the NFL, announced in March of 2021. As part of the agreement, ESPN and ABC will air the Super Bowl following the 2026 and 2030 seasons.
Hall of Fame Game Airs on ESPN and ABC
ESPN will begin the 2024-25 preseason with the Hall of Fame game, featuring the Chicago Bears and Houston Texans on Thursday, Aug. 1, at 8 p.m. ET. The game will be simulcast on ABC, with the Spanish-language telecast on ESPN Deportes.
Monday Night Football’s Joe Buck, Troy Aikman and Lisa Salters will call the game from Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium, officially kicking off the NFL’s 105th season. More on the Hall of Fame can be found here.
The Hall of Fame game is one of multiple events in Canton for ESPN in the summer, as ESPN will have coverage of the NFL Flag Championships (July 19-21) and the Hall of Fame enshrinement (August 3).
