ESPN is scrapping its national morning radio show featuring Keyshawn Johnson, Jay Williams and Max Kellerman, The Post has learned.
This is part of the restructuring of the company that will include significant on-air layoffs as early as next week, according to sources.
It doesn’t mean that Johnson, Williams or Kellerman will be let go, though Kellerman is in jeopardy as a big-money guy who now is going to be out on radio and has “The Pat McAfee Show” this fall moving into the same time slot as Kellerman’s TV program, “This Just In”
Johnson and Williams’ futures are in flux.
ESPN signed Johnson to a four-year contract worth around $18 million last year, according to sources.
As part of the upcoming layoffs, ESPN is expected to buy out some deals.

Jay Williams was on Pat Beverley's podcast and he seemed to know it was coming.

Kellerman, despite being a woke idiot, is extremely talented.
Keyshawn is trash.

Max Kellerman has talent. He's just a douche that doesn't connect with people outside of the northeast.

I actually like Kellerman as a boxing guy. He’s got bad takes every now and then but he knows boxing.

The show sucks. How they ever justified paying what they pay to have it on, I'll never know. They run promos for it constantly where Keyshawn says something like, NFL teams already invest in quarterbacks, I'mma tell ya the next position that needs to get paid. He has no real expertise or insight. Max is a pandering fool who stakes out the dumbest positions on purpose to try and generate X-Pac heat. You know it was a disaster when Kellerman was brought in to try and save it. That's the definition of a hail mary.
ETA: Agree with the other posters who correctly note Max knows boxing. The problem is that boxing isn't drawing ears or eyeballs. It's like having an Arena Soccer expert. They probably exist, but no one wants to hear about it.

Williams won't be missed

Max Kellerman is a woke enemy of the people I hope he loses his job

Paying Keyshawn Johnson $4 mil a year to talk into a microphone is absurd

I would like to say, without any qualifiers. . .
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK KELLERMAN

The only show i like on either espn or fox is first things first. Broussard, Wright, and Wildes have good chemistry and you can tell daily they have a lot of fun doing that show.

I don’t think ESPN particularly cares about radio anymore, the line up as a whole has been bad for over a decade now.
Does Greenie still have a show he never actually hosts ?

What exactly is Kellerman’s talent? Just curious. I don’t watch these morning hot take shows often.

He came from boxing so i guess that would be it. His Tom Brady takes were Rob Parker level bad but outside of that i never had much disdain for him.

Wouldn't touch ESPN side shows with a 10-foot stick. But I've heard a few of Keyshawn's takes on YouTube when the topic was to my liking. I could imagine that show getting canceled on his stupidity alone.

Yes. It’s his show but he’s on it less than Johnny Carson did his show in the late 80s. And when Greenie is on he mostly talks about his Jets.

The show is terrible. Finally a wise decision by ESPN.
Posted on 6/21/23 at 5:16 pm to RLDSC FAN
That was the worst show they had.
Fitz and Harry is 2nd worst.
Greeny is the only good show, but he's never on it.
