Who are the announcers for Super Bowl 2024? Here's who is calling the game for CBS
Super Bowl Sunday is almost here.
This year's game, which kicks off at 6:30 p.m. ET on Sunday, Feb. 11, will be the 58th iteration of the NFL's championship game and will see the Kansas City Chiefs take on the San Francisco 49ers at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The Chiefs beat the Baltimore Ravens 17-10 in Baltimore in the AFC Championship game last Sunday to advance to the Super Bowl. The 49ers defeated the Detroit Lions 34-31 in the NFC Championship game to earn their Super Bowl berth.
The game will be a rematch of Super Bowl 54 in 2020. The Chiefs beat the 49ers 31-20 in that game behind a standout performance from quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who threw for two touchdowns and ran for one more.
Here's everything you need to know about Super Bowl 58, including what channel the game will air on and who the announcers will be.

The trio of Jim Nantz (play-by-play), Tony Romo (analyst) and Tracy Wolfson (sideline reporter) is set to call its third Super Bowl together.
Reporters Evan Washburn and Jay Feely, as well as rules analyst Gene Steratore, will also be on the broadcast.
Who are the analysts for Super Bowl 58 pregame, halftime, and postgame coverage?
"The NFL Today" will provide pregame, halftime and postgame coverage, according to CBS.
