The New England Patriots have now gone exactly 2 years without making an appearance on ESPN's Monday Night Football. They have the longest MNF drought of any team.

December 12, 2022 was the last time the Patriots played on MNF. They did not make any appearances on MNF in 2023, and were not scheduled for any MNF games in 2024.

As a Patriots fan, this hurts. We are tied with the Pittsburgh Steelers for most Super Bowl championships, yet we’ve been excluded from the MNF schedule 2 seasons in a row, and now have this “drought” saddled onto us.

The next longest MNF drought: the Indianapolis Colts, who lasted played on MNF on December 26, 2022. Oddly, they were also excluded from the MNF schedule in both 2023 and 2024.
