Super Bowl 60 announcers

NBC owns the broadcast rights to Super Bowl 60, which means their team of announcers – most often featured on "Sunday Night Football" during the regular season – will be on the call in Santa Clara.

That means Mike Tirico will handle the play-by-play duties, and Cris Collinsworth will be with him in the booth as a game analyst. Melissa Stark and Kaylee Hartung will report from the sidelines. Former NFL referee Terry McAulay will serve as NBC's rules analyst as well to help add clarity to any potentially confusing calls by the game's officials.

Super Bowl 60 will be Collinsworth's sixth time calling a Super Bowl. It will also be his fifth time calling a Super Bowl featuring the Patriots. The lone exception is Super Bowl 56, when the Los Angeles Rams defeated the Cincinnati Bengals. New England is 2-2 in Super Bowls that Collinsworth has called, with wins in Super Bowls 39 and 49 and losses in Super Bowls 46 and 52.
