ESPN Monday Night Football (abbreviated as MNF and also known as ESPN Monday Night Football on ABC for simulcasts and NFL on ESPN for non-Monday telecasts) is an American live television broadcast of weekly National Football League (NFL) games airing on ESPN, ABC (select games), ESPN2 ("Manningcast" alternate broadcast) and ESPN+ in the United States.
From 1970 to 2005 aired on ABC before moving exclusively to ESPN, which remains the main channel for the broadcast. In 2020, it returned to ABC in select simulcasts with ESPN, and beginning in 2022, it also features select exclusive ABC telecasts. Monday Night Football was, along with Hallmark Hall of Fame and the Wonderful World of Disney, one of the longest-running prime time programs on commercial network television, and one of the highest-rated, particularly among male viewers. MNF is preceded on ESPN by Monday Night Countdown.
Monday Night Football is broadcast in Canada on TSN and RDS, and in most of Europe. On September 7, 2013, the NFL announced that British Eurosport would show Monday Night Football games live in the United Kingdom for the 2013 and 2014 seasons. The telecasts are also seen in most of Australia on ESPN Australia, in Portugal on SportTV 3 and SportTV HD and on TV 2 Sport in Denmark, and in some other regions of the world outside the U.S. on ESPN International. A Spanish-language version airs on ESPN Deportes in the U.S. and on ESPN International in Latin America, while a Portuguese version airs on ESPN Brasil. Per an NFL broadcasting policy intended to allow those who do not subscribe to cable or satellite television to see games televised by a pay television network, the games are also made available on over-the-air television stations in each participating team's local market.
In 2011, ESPN extended its MNF contract for an additional eight seasons, giving it rights to the broadcasts until 2021. The deal, valued around US$15 billion, also gave ESPN rights to expanded highlights, international, and streaming rights. A new deal signed in 2021 sees ESPN retain these rights through 2033. Included with the new contract are the rights to two Super Bowls in 2027 and 2031, the introduction of flexible scheduling, and two additional doubleheaders during the season, with one Sunday morning game on ESPN+.
