It doesn't look like the WatchESPN app (I need it for Monday Night Football), isn't available for Android TV. Is it possible to sideload the Google Play version? Has anyone done this that can provide any comment/feedback? Thank you.

A long while back I side loaded it on my adt1 and it worked but you needed a mouse and keyboard to login and navigate. It was a huge hassle and casting was faster. Don't know if it has gotten any better or worse since as mine collects dust now.
Yes you can sideload the google play version. But casting the video should work better.
The sideloaded app works well with a mouse. The problem is that for MNF, the app registers as a mobile device. It keeps MNF from playing on Android TV because of whatever contract the NFL/Verizon... etc has about mobile streaming. Casting works really well.
ESPN, by far, is one of the things I would like on Android TV most.
I also don't expect to get an Android TV-specific solution anytime soon.
sigh...
Nope, you will need to cast.
