Stephen A. Smith envisions himself working on Monday Night Football - but his ESPN teammates on the program reportedly have 'zero interest' in the prospect of him joining them. Stephen A. Smith has publicly stated his desires to work on Monday Night Football But the crew is said to have 'no interest' in welcoming the First Take host onto the show 'They were laughing about it, some were saying that 'there is no way he joins us, he is not one of us football guys and he wants the whole attention and all the spotlights.' The US Sun report comes after Smith told Front Office Sports of his ambitions to expand his horizons past the NBA work he is known for and into NFL coverage on Monday Night Football. Ryan Clark, Marcus Spears, Scott Van Pelt and Jason Kelce make up the MNF studio coverage Smith wants to try his hand at the NFL, and is also reportedly looking for a massive pay bump Others are less convinced he could hack it on MNF, though, with the aforementioned source saying that Smith has 'zero credibility as a football analyst.'
