After eight seasons as the radio voice of Monday Night Football and the Super Bowl, Marv Albert has decided to call it quits. In a statement released Friday (June 4), Albert said he wanted to cut down on his schedule.

Boomer Esiason will continue to serve as lead analyst for Westwood One’s Monday Night Football and Super Bowl broadcasts. A new play-by-play announcer will be announced later, the radio network said.

“I thoroughly enjoyed my eight seasons with Boomer Esiason and the rest of the Westwood One crew, but I just felt that with my commitments to NBA telecasts and other projects, I wanted to cut down my schedule moving forward,” Albert said.
