NFL fans weren’t expecting to see Al Michaels on their TVs for tonight’s playoff game.
Michaels is on the call for tonight’s Jaguars vs. Chargers playoff game in Jacksonville — for NBC, not Amazon, though.
Michaels, 78, called Thursday night games on Prime with Kirk Herbstreit throughout the season.
Tonight, though, he’s working with the great Tony Dungy in the NBC broadcast booth.
“A reminder: Tonight the legendary Al Michaels will return to NBC to call the Jaguars vs. Chargers playoff game. Michaels called Sunday Night Football with NBC from 2006-2021 before moving to Amazon, but in an emeritus role at NBC.” Tony Dungy will be his partner,” Field Yates said.
“Welcome back, Al Michaels and hello @Tony Dungysaid Sunday Night Football on NBC.
One fan said on Twitter, “Al Michael calling the game on NBC just feels right.”
NFL playoff football is on and Al Michaels is in the broadcast booth. All is right in the world.
