Nessler and Dilfer in, Mike and Mike Out For Late MNF Telecast

Filed under: Chargers, Chiefs, Jets, Ravens, AFC West, Sports Business and MediaBrad Nessler and Trent Dilfer have been handed the keys to ESPN's "Monday Night Football" booth for the second game of the season-opening doubleheader, the network announced Monday.

Nessler, the longtime college football and basketball play-by-play man, and Dilfer, who quarterbacked the Baltimore Ravens to a Super Bowl title in 2000, will work the San Diego-Kansas City game September 13 from a renovated Arrowhead Stadium for a 10:15 p.m. scheduled kickoff.

Dilfer and Nessler replace Mike Greenberg and Mike Golic, the company's morning radio duo. The two had called the late opener the past three years with either Mike Ditka or Steve Young.

The Chargers-Chiefs contest will follow the Baltimore Ravens-New York Jets opener, to be called by Mike Tirico, Ron Jaworski and Jon Gruden, the usual MNF troika.National League Red Sox Blue Jays Royals
