Before calling Texans-Bengals, MNF’s Gruden meets local prep players for ‘Chalk Talk’
CINCINNATI – On Nov. 14, ESPN Monday Night Football analyst Jon Gruden hosted a “Chalk Talk” event at Dick’s Sporting Goods to honor four high school programs in the Cincinnati area: LaSalle, Reading, Lakota and Fairfield.
LaSalle High School will be featured in the weekly “Monday Night Lights” segments airing tonight during the telecasts of Monday Night Countdown (ESPN, 6 p.m. ET) and MNF’s Houston Texans at Cincinnati Bengals (ESPN, 8:30).
Earlier this season, ESPN launched “Lights,” a youth football series that highlights the MNF and Countdown crews interacting with local high school and Pee Wee teams at every game.
