Noah Eagle will replace Mike Tirico on Sunday Night Football this weekend after the longtime play-by-play announcer stepped away due to an undisclosed health issue, according to a report from Awful Announcing on Sunday.
The change was announced November 8, 2026, with Drew Lerner reporting that Eagle, who has been gaining prominence in NBC's broadcasting lineup, will fill the lead role for the network's flagship NFL package. Tirico has been the voice of Sunday Night Football since 2022, following Al Michaels' departure to Amazon Prime Video.
No specific timeline was given for Tirico's return. NBC has not released further details on the nature of the health concern.
