Summary
- Pat McAfee will join Monday Night Countdown.
- He is expected to get a larger role in NFL coverage.

Pat McAfee is set to become a prominent figure on ESPN's "Monday Night Countdown," marking a significant expansion of his role with the network. This addition places him at the forefront of ESPN's Super Bowl coverage scheduled for next February.
McAfee will join host Scott Van Pelt and analysts Jason Kelce, Marcus Spears, and Jason McCourty. This strategic move aligns with reports from June regarding his contract extension talks, which indicated a potential deal of $60-65 million annually and an enhanced presence in the network's NFL programming.
In addition to his new role, McAfee is slated to continue his daily talk show, which airs on ESPN and other platforms, as well as his regular spot on "College GameDay." This ensures his substantial involvement in ESPN's NFL presentation nearly every day of the week during the upcoming fall season.
