ESPN will air a Simpsons-themed broadcast of Bengals-Cowboys in December
ESPN is headed to Springfield for one of its Dec. 9 Monday Night Football broadcasts for the Cincinnati Bengals and Dallas Cowboys game.
The network will stream an alternate broadcast of Bengals-Cowboys with theming from The Simpsons, similar to what it did with Toy Story and a London NFL game in 2023.
The alternative broadcast will air on ESPN+ and Disney+ via streaming and NFL+ via mobile, with Bart Simpson representing the Bengals and Homer Simpson representing the Cowboys.
"Each Bengals and Cowboys player will appear as a motion-enabled, animated player for the special primetime matchup," a Disney release reads.
"Through state-of-the-art tracking technology enabled by NFL’s Next Gen Stats, Sony’s Beyond Sports, combined with Sony’s Hawk-Eye Innovations’ optical tracking, fans enjoying The Simpsons Funday Football will see every snap, run, pass, score, and more from the real-life Bengals and Cowboys matchup at AT&T Stadium as it happens."
No word if Comic Book Guy will be critiquing the Bengals and Cowboys at halftime.
