For the AFC title game between the New England Patriots and Denver Broncos, CBS will deploy its top announcing team, led by veteran play‑by‑play voice Jim Nantz and analyst Tony Romo. Nantz’s smooth delivery and Romo’s instinctive breakdowns have become synonymous with marquee NFL moments and they’ll be front and center this Sunday.

Romo, known for picking apart quarterback mechanics and offensive structure, will have plenty to discuss as the Broncos navigate life without Bo Nix and hand the keys to Jarrett Stidham in one of the biggest games of his career. On the sidelines, Tracy Wolfson and Evan Washburn will provide real‑time updates, injury information, and locker room access to bring fans closer to the action on and off the field.

Announcer Team:

  • Play-by-Play: Kevin Burkhardt
  • Color Analyst: Tom Brady

On the NFC side, FOX Sports’ lead broadcast team is set to call the game between the Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks. Kevin Burkhardt will handle play‑by‑play, bringing energy and pacing that fits a game with so much on the line. Sharing the booth with him will be Tom Brady, the seven‑time Super Bowl champion who transitioned to broadcasting with FOX and has quickly developed a reputation for insightful analysis and a deep understanding of quarterback play.

Brady’s perspective as one of the most decorated quarterbacks in NFL history adds a unique layer to the Sunday night showdown, with deep context on offensive adjustments, defensive looks, and the tiny details that decide playoff games. On the sidelines, seasoned reporters Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi will offer injury news, coach soundbites, and real-time stories.
