Pat McAfee is taking his Field Pass show from college football to the NFL.
The network’s marquee talk show talent will be doing a version of Field Pass with the Pat McAfee Show during next year’s Super Bowl LXI. It will be one of three alternate telecasts for the big game. The others are Super Bowl LXI Playbook with Next Gen Stats and the venerable Manningcast. Field Pass will air on ESPNU while Super Bowl LXI Playbook with Next Gen Stats will air on NFL Network and Manningcast will be on its usual home, ESPN2.
Additionally, Field Pass with the Pat McAfee Show will become an alternate telecast for a number of this season’s Monday Night Football games. It will debut in Week 6 for Washington Commanders and San Francisco 49ers, the first of five Monday Night Football editions. The stint will conclude during Week 18 on January 9.
McAfee will remain in his field level position with Dan Orlovsky and Darius Butler, while Connor Campbell, Ty Schmit and Tone Digs will join from an in-stadium suite.
On NFL Network, MNF Playbook with Next Gen Stats begins a week earlier, in Week 5, for Buffalo Bills and Los Angeles Rams, its first of seven Monday editions.
