<P> After three years of using the timeline - themed open, MNF debuted a new 75 - second, Hollywood - themed open on September 12, 2016 and it features ESPN's new MNF broadcast team--Sean McDonough (play - by - play), Jon Gruden (color) and Lisa Salters (sideline reporter)--and more than 20 current NFL stars and Pro Football Hall of Famers walking along a red carpet entrance lined by cheering fans and photographers taking pictures . It begins with a shot of a downtown stadium surrounded by skyscrapers, with a 2017 GMC Acadia (product placement again provided by GMC) displaying the location for that week's MNF game on its navigation system . The Acadia then heads to a glitzy red carpet at the stadium's entrance, where McDonough, Gruden and Salters exit the car, followed on the carpet by a flood of NFL players representing the past and present of MNF . Players then pose for pictures and wave to the crowd as they reach the stadium entrance . Josh Norman (Redskins), Larry Fitzgerald (Cardinals) and Rob Gronkowski (Patriots) are among the current players being represented in the open, with Franco Harris (Steelers), Jerry Rice (49ers), Barry Sanders (Lions) and Bruce Smith (Bills) among the past players being represented . For the Spanish - language version of the Hollywood - themed open, it features ESPN's Spanish - language MNF broadcast team--Álvaro Martín (play - by - play), Raúl Allegre (color) and John Sutcliffe (sideline reporter) as well as the current Hispanic NFL players and the team of the Latin American version of NFL Live led by Ciro Procuna . </P> <P> MNF returned to two teases for the first time since its first season on ESPN (2006). The Hollywood - themed open was repeated from the previous season, this time with the 2018 GMC Terrain being used as the automaker's product placement . </P> <P> Also, Hank Williams, Jr. returned to MNF on September 11, 2017 with an all - new version of the iconic opening theme song, "All My Rowdy Friends Are Here on Monday Night" (used from 1989 to Week 3 of the 2011 season) and it appeared just before that night's New Orleans Saints - Minnesota Vikings game . The new version, which is seen just before the kickoff of each game, is a collaboration of Williams, Jr, country duo Florida Georgia Line, and R&B singer Jason Derulo . </P> <P> Hank Williams Jr. reworked his country music hit "All My Rowdy Friends Are Coming Over Tonight" to be included in the telecast's introduction as "All My Rowdy Friends Are Here on Monday Night" (the original introduction music was an organ - based piece called "Score", written by Charles Fox and recorded by Bob's Band). In addition, Edd Kalehoff modernized the classic "Heavy Action" theme in 1989 . </P>
