Did you turn on Sunday night’s Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers game on NBC and suddenly wonder why you were hearing the voice of Mike Tirico and NOT that of Al Michaels?
We have an answer.
The last game Michaels called for NBC was back in February, which was Super Bowl 56. Since then, the legendary play-by-play man agreed to join Amazon for the streamer’s new Thursday Night Football package that kicked off in Week 2.
Cris Collinsworth is still with NBC and is in the booth for Sunday’s game — the second Sunday Night Football game for 2022 — as well.
There’s your answer!
Amazon makes it official: Announcers for Thursday Night Football will be Al Michaels and Kirk Herbstreit.
