McShay will miss the NFL Draft due to COVID-19
The NFL Draft coverage on ESPN will have one less participant as Todd McShay announced that he's recovering at home from the coronavirus.
"For now, I just want to say I miss you all-my teammates at ESPN who have been incredibly supportive, my friends in the league and the fans who have made the Draft what it is today," McShaw wrote in a statement on Twitter.
Mel Kiper Jr., McShay's on-air sparring partner for 14 years responded:
"The 2020 NFL draft just won't be the same without my dear friend and sparring partner Todd Todd Todd @McShay13 . Todd really puts in the work and makes us all better. We will miss him and I'm hoping he's 100 percent and back on my case, ASAP. You got this, Todd".

McShay has been a part of ESPN's draft coverage since 2006 and was scheduled to appear on ABC this year. ESPN, ABC and the NFL Network will have broadcast coverage virtually of the NFL Draft, which starts at 8pmET. The broadcast will originate from ESPN's studios in Bristol, Connecticut.
