The two-hour Monday Night Countdown pregame show begins at 6 p.m. on ESPN. Highlights:

- Gruden’s Grill Session with Alex Smith: Super Bowl-winning coach and MNF analyst Gruden visits with Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith.
- Rick Reilly – Drew Bledsoe: If not for an injury to then-Patriots starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe in 2001, the Tom Brady era in New England may never have happened. In his weekly feature, Countdown’s Rick Reilly looks at where Bledsoe is now, 13 years after losing his starting job to Brady and eight years since retiring from the NFL.
