ESPN replaces Steve Levy with Chris Fowler on Week 2 Saints-Panthers MNF broadcast

There’s another changeup coming for ESPN’s “Monday Night Football” broadcast this season, and New Orleans Saints fans will get a first look at it in their team’s Week 2 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. ESPN is bringing back analysts Dan Orlovsky and Louis Riddick for their Monday night B-team, but they’re replacing Steve Levy with Chris Fowler. The Athletic’s Richard Deitsch first reported news of the switch.

The flagship network made a splashy move last year by poaching both Joe Buck and Troy Aikman from FOX Sports, and they’ll continue to be the A-team on most Monday nights (they’re also handling the Browns-Steelers game in Week 2, which kicks off after the Saints and Panthers). But there are three double-headers on this year’s NFL schedule, so we’ll be seeing a lot of Fowler, Orlovsky, and Riddick on those broadcasts.

But we’re getting ahead of ourselves. What about Week 1? The Saints will open their season at the Caesars Superdome on Sept. 10 against the Tennessee Titans, with Chris Lewis, Jason McCourty, Ross Tucker, and Amanda Guerra on the call for CBS Sports.
