NBC Sports Mike Tirico Earns Recognition as Premier Sportscaster

After going on a sports TV heater not seen in years, Mike Tirico is finally getting his due as the worlds best all-around sportscaster. Tiricos exemplary work for NBC Sports over the last month is creating daylight between him and his contemporaries. Only two weeks ago, Tirico called his first Super Bowl with Sunday Night Football partner Cris Collinsworth. He then immediately hosted Primetime in Milan from the confetti-covered field at Levis Stadium before jetting to Italy to host NBCs coverage of the 2026 Winter Olympics. That makes Tirico the first U.S. broadcaster to call the Super Bowl and host a Winter Games in the same year.
