The torrent of big names being laid off by ESPN continues.
NFL Draft analyst Todd McShay was among the high-profile ESPN talents laid off on Friday, The Post has learned.
McShay had been with ESPN since 2006, and part of the network’s NFL Draft telecast since 2009.
His friendly rivalry with Mel Kiper Jr. — in which they would get into fierce debates about various prospects — was highly entertaining.
McShay also was a college football sideline reporter for several years.
The Post previously reported that 20 high-profile talents would be laid off on Friday as part of sweeping cost cuts from Disney to eliminate 7,000 jobs in the broader organization.
