Under the current Super Bowl broadcast deal, the NFL’s championship game rotates each year between ABC, CBS, FOX, and NBC. But 2026 is a bit different.
This year, NBC Sports takes center stage for what it calls “Super Gold Sunday.” It’s a historic broadcasting event where Super Bowl LX and the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics converge on a single day, spanning the entire NBCUniversal portfolio. That means the Seahawks–Patriots matchup will air on NBC and Peacock, while Telemundo and UNIVERSO team up for the exclusive Spanish-language broadcast.
Of course, the Super Bowl coverage will feature a star-studded lineup of commentators, analysts, hosts, and insiders. Keep reading as I dive into which TV personalities will be on hand at Super Bowl LX.
