Booger McFarland and Joe Tessitore reportedly will not return to ESPN’s Monday Night Football booth.
And that news Saturday invited many on Twitter to share who they hope ESPN will get to fill in.
One popular name? ESPN’s Louis Riddick.
Two words. Louis Riddick

So obvious Booger replacement is Louis Riddick. Not so sure there’s an obvious PxP replacement in house. Steve Levy? Meh. Maybe Chris Fowler? https://t.co/eg8RehsNYZ

Levy and Riddick. Easy fix.

Riddick joined ESPN in May 2013. He was a former NFL scout and director of pro personnel after playing in the NFL himself.
During his time at ESPN, he’s provided analysis on the Worldwide Leader’s NFL shows like “Sunday NFL Countdown,” “Monday Night Countdown” and “NFL Live.” He even has some experience in the MNF booth having taken part in the production in Sept. 2019.
