Who Will Guide Fans Through Cowboys-Raiders Game?

Play-by-Play Announcer: Joe Buck

Analyst: Troy Aikman

Sideline Reporters: Lisa Salters and Laura Rutledge

Fans tuning into the Cowboys and Raiders game will hear one of the most familiar broadcast duos in the booth. Joe Buck will handle play-by-play duties, joined in the booth by Pro Football Hall of Famer and Cowboys legend Troy Aikman, who returns to call another game involving his former team. Their chemistry and long-standing partnership have been staples of Monday Night Football.

On the sidelines, ESPN will deploy reporters Lisa Salters and Laura Rutledge. Both will provide real-time updates on injuries, coaching insights, and other developments throughout the night, giving viewers a closer look at how the game plays out from field level.

For fans seeking an alternate viewing experience, ESPN will once again offer the popular “ManningCast” on ESPN2. Hosted by brothers Peyton Manning and Eli Manning, the broadcast will blend live game analysis with guest interviews and offbeat commentary. Although the guest list for Week 11 has not yet been announced, the ManningCast consistently welcomes high-profile personalities from sports and entertainment.

The Cowboys enter the game with a 3-5-1 record after being idle in Week 10. Their last outing was a 27-17 loss to the Arizona Cardinals on Nov. 3. The Raiders, meanwhile, sit at 2-7 under first-year coach Pete Carroll. Despite their record, Las Vegas has shown signs of competitive improvement with narrow losses to the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Denver Broncos in recent weeks.
