Last Friday, First Take was on the road and aired a live TV broadcast at Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia.
Qerim was joined by Stephen A. Smith, Shannon Sharpe, and new arrival, NFL legend Cam Newton.
She impressed fans with a pistachio-colored figure-hugging dress.
However, Qerim didn’t appear on the program on Monday.
She was absent as she likely took the day off on Veteran’s Day.
Cornette took her place in the host chair and was joined by Stephen A. and Dan Orlovsky in the New York City studios while Sharpe appeared remotely.
The show started with a discussion about the Detroit Lions’ stunning 23-20 win over the Houston Texans on Sunday Night Football.
However, fans pleaded for Qerim to return to First Take.
“Where is @mollyqerim,” one wrote.
“I’m missing Molly. The only reason I watch @FirstTake,” another commented.
“We miss seeing you & hope all is well, please come back,” a third added.
It’s unclear if Qerim will take another day off this week.
She was absent from First Take for six days last month.
Qerim has been the host of First Take since 2015.

She has since been the popular host of the daily sports debate show.
Qerim stuns fans with her opinions as well as her outfits.
The TV host has over 683,000 Instagram followers.
First Take airs at 10 am – 12 pm Eastern every weekday on ESPN.
The program follows Get Up! on live TV before the Pat McAfee Show begins at midday.
