Good Morning Football viewers are used to waking up and being greeted by Jamie Erdahl’s friendly face to talk some football.

However, Erdahl was absent from the broadcast on Wednesday, October 2, and Sara Walsh stepped in as the lead host for the NFL Network show.

More from Deadline

Erdahl was missing because she was en route to London to prepare to cover the New York Jets and Minnesota Vikings’ encounter.

Michael Robinson joined Walsh in GMFB‘s Los Angeles studio, who continues subbing for Akbar Gbajabiamila, who has been out filming the new season of American Ninja Warrior. Kyle Brandt and Ian Rapoport were live from the NY studio.
