Monday Night Football: Games, Dates & Time

Monday Night Football kicked off on Sept. 9 and will continue into January 2025. The season’s debut game between the New York Jets and San Francisco 49ers averaged 20.5 million viewers, down from the previous year.

By comparison, last year’s MNF kickoff game between the Jets and Bills drew a record-breaking 22.6 million viewers, making it the most watched MNF game in history beating out the previous record-holder, a 2009’s game between the Packers and Vikings.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Philadelphia Eagles’ 2023 win over the Chiefs last November drew a record 29 million viewers in total, a 27-year ratings high and the highest numbers of the season for a single game since the Super Bowl.

Beyond the game itself, NFL ratings have received a boost thanks in part to Taylor Swift who appeared at the Kansas City Chiefs vs. Baltimore Ravens season kickoff, and has shown up to a few other games to support for her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. Swift attended the Chiefs vs. Saints MNF game earlier this month.

NFL ratings hit another high mark last Thanksgiving holiday weekend. Last year’s Thanksgiving game between the Cowboys and Commanders snagged a whopping 44 million viewers, the third-largest audience for a regular season game in history. The game, where the Cowboys beat the Commanders 45-10, aired on CBS and streamed on Paramount+.

The NFL team is no stranger to Thanksgiving games as the Cowboys have played a game on Thanksgiving day nearly every year since 1966. Next month, the Cowboys will play the New York Giants in one of three NFL games on Thanksgiving. Lainey Wilson is slated to perform at halftime.

Will this new season score even bigger ratings? We’ll have to wait and see, but fans who want to watch games live, either from home or on-the-go, can easily stream select NFL games and more on ESPN+.

MNF sounds a bit different this season. That’s because ESPN enlisted the help of J Balvin to curate the music for select games. Chris Stapleton, Timbaland and Justin Timberlake curated the music for last year’s games, preceded by Marshmello in 2022, Drake in 2021, DJ Khaled in 2020 and Diplo in 2019.

To kick off the collaboration, the NFL debuted a remix of Balvin’s song “DOBLEXXO” featuring Feid from his new album Rayo.

“ESPN’s Music curation program with Monday Night Football continues with an artist that will amplify the bold and new music strategy,” said Curtis Friends, ESPN vice president of sports marketing. “J Balvin is a global icon whose influence hits with diverse cultures and genres. His music choices embrace the anticipation and excitement the ESPN football season offers, and we can’t wait for him to come along the season-long ride with us.”

With the season is nearly halfway over, there are a ton of games left on the MNF schedule, and plenty of opportunities to watch them live. Click here to get tickets to see your favorite NFL games in person.

Want to stream MNF from outside of the U.S.? With ExpressVPN, NordVPN and PureVPN you can access several streaming platforms and channels.

More than half a century into his career, Bruce Springsteen is one of the biggest rock stars on the planet. But is he a billionaire? After Forbes magazine reported in July that the blue collar hero had an estimated fortune that it pegged as conservatively north of $1.1 billion, the New Jersey icon set the record straight this week in an interview with the U.K.’s Telegraph (paywalled).

“I’m not a billionaire. I wish I was, but they got that real wrong,” Springsteen, 75, told the paper without offering up a more accurate net worth. He did, however, note that the figure was even less likely because, he’s spent “too much money on superfluous things,” again without specifically describing what those things are.

Springsteen did, however, hint at where some of that money might have gone last week when he spoke to Business Insider in London last week to promote the new Hulu doc, Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. “I pay them a tremendous amount of money. That greases the wheels pretty good,” he said of his trusty E Street brethren, which include the band’s six longest-tenured core members, as well eight additional live performers and a four-man horn section. “And then, I’m a pretty nice boss. The truth is, you need to cast your band well.”

Back in July, Forbes cited Springsteen selling his music catalog to Sony in 2021 for an estimated $500-$550 million as one of the main drivers of his wealth; it was the the largest deal ever for an individual body of work. Other revenue streams that the financial magazine said contributed to the Boss’ coffers: a 2023 tour that sold more than 1.6 million tickets and generated $380 million, following on the heels of the 267-show sold-out run of his 2017-2018/2021 Springsteen on Broadway show, as well as career sales of more than 140 million albums globally and his band’s current tour, which is slated to run through mid-2025.
