Report: ESPN sidelines two

Michelle Tafoya and Suzy Kolber are out as sideline reporters on ESPN's "Monday Night Football," ProFootballTalk.com reported.

Tafoya had previously been a reporter with ABC when it had the "MNF" franchise, while Kolber has worked the sidelines for ESPN dating back to its Sunday night package.

ESPN issued a statement late Sunday regarding the report:

"Michelle and Suzy will still be assigned to our multiplatform Monday Night Football presentation, including the game, pregame, and postgame. Their precise roles are currently being determined."

As PFT notes in its report, the sideline reports at times were heavy on preplanned content, and light on in-game information. The Web site said the network has no plans to replace the reporters.
