According to author James Andrew Miller, ESPN will replace the outgoing Chris Berman’s multiple roles in parts. Trey Wingo will host the first-round coverage of the NFL Draft, Suzy Kolber will take over Berman’s Monday Night Football duties, and Samantha Ponder will slide into the captain’s chair for Sunday NFL Countdown.
Miller notes that nothing is set in stone at this point but, considering Miller wrote the oral histories of ESPN and talent agency CAA and Ponder is a CAA client, the sourcing on this one is as good as gold.

The daughter of a high school football coach, Ponder joined Fox Sports in 2010, joined ESPN as part of Longhorn Network’s launch roster in 2011 by 2012 earned a role on College GameDay. She worked on ABC’s top crew alongside Chris Fowler and Kirk Herbstreit in 2016.
The former Samantha Steele married Christian Ponder in 2012, and Ponder rose the broadcasting latter while bringing the couple’s daughter Scout, named after Bobby Bowden, with her on the road.

Interesting replacement. You'd think it would have been Wingo.
She's hot though.

She can't possibly be any worse than Berman.

Kinda sucks for Wingo, dude has been waiting in the wings for decades, and he gets beat out by a CFB Sideline Reporter. Suzy as well, she's been there since the 90's I believe too

Look at that impressive resume; daddy coached football, then part of the failing longhorn network, and then college game day token blonde. Certainly qualified to replace a a guy who's been doing it for 40 years and made it what it is.
