ESPN is lining up special coverage for the upcoming NFL free agency frenzy.
With NFL free agency set to open in two days, ESPN is opening up extra time to discuss the moves around the league.
Starting on Monday, ESPN will air a “SportsCenter Special” starting at 3:00 pm ET and running for an hour.
On ESPN2, the network also aired an hour-long “SportsCenter Special” starting at 11 am ET.
These programs are going to continue throughout the week as free agency unfolds.
ESPN is airing a second episode of the special on Tuesday starting at 3:00 pm ET.
ESPN2 will air another episode on Wednesday starting at 1:30 pm ET and airing for 1.5 hours.
That show will air up until one hour before free agency opens, before NFL Live takes over the final hour.
All of the episodes are described as “NFL Free Agency Countdown,” and will likely predict the upcoming moves.
“Presenting the latest news from the world of sports,” the episodes are summarized as.
NFL free agency opens up at 4 pm ET on March 12, coinciding with the start of the new league year.
A flurry of moves will be announced around that time, but moves are already being made around the league.
Many players have been released by their teams, and they are free to sign before the free agency window opens up.
Davante Adams has already signed with the Los Angeles Rams after being released by the New York Jets.
He secured a two-year, $44 million deal with the West Coast club.
Other big-time trades have started to go down too, with quarterback Geno Smith being sent from the Seattle Seahawks to the Las Vegas Raiders.
The Seahawks also traded wide receiver DK Metcalf to the Pittsburgh Steelers for a second-round pick.
