Story Highlights
After numerous years together at Fox Sports, the broadcast duo of play-by-play commentator Joe Buck and analyst Troy Aikman made the jump to ESPN to join the team with Monday Night Football. Their remarkable debut season led them to winning the 2023 Sports Emmy for Outstanding Live Series.
At the ceremony, the front bench of ESPN's 2022-23 Monday Night Football slate - Director Jimmy Platt and Producer Phil Dean - took some time to explain the positive impact of their new team in the booth and the individuals behind the scenes that make each week's show a stunning success.
