The festivities will commence with a live preshow from the NFL Network’s studios in Los Angeles and Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh at 11 AM ET. Anchoring the Los Angeles coverage will be Kay Adams (host of Up & Adams), accompanied by an impressive lineup of analysts including former Super Bowl-winning quarterback Drew Brees, former NFL quarterback Robert Griffin III, ESPN NFL analyst Mina Kimes, and former NFL linebacker Manti Te’o.

At 1 PM ET, the Kansas City Chiefs will battle the Pittsburgh Steelers. The commentary team will feature Ian Eagle as the play-by-play announcer, alongside color commentators Nate Burleson (former NFL wide receiver and CBS analyst) and JJ Watt. Sideline reporting will be handled by Melanie Collins (CBS Sports) and Stacey Dales (NFL Network), with the preshow commentators returning for halftime analysis.
