Is A Jump To The NFL In The Future For ESPN's Kirk Herbstreit? TRAINA THOUGHTS

1. Kirk Herbstreit called an NFL game for the first time in his career during Week 1 of the season when he joined his partner, Chris Fowler, for Steelers-Giants on Monday night.

The longtime college football duo will work another NFL game Monday, when they call the rescheduled Patriots-Broncos game at 5 p.m. ET.

Could Herbstreit, who has been the lead analyst for ABC Saturday Night Football since 2006, be ready to leave college football for the NFL?

Obviously, nothing is in the works at the moment since we're in the middle of both seasons, but there have been rumors that Disney would like to get a second NFL package when the NFL negotiates new television deals.
