The Netflix Christmas Day broadcasts will be a family affair once again for CBS Sports’ Ian Eagle and NBC Sports’ Noah Eagle, with the father-son duo each calling a Netflix game this year. Both Ian and Noah also called games for the NFL on Christmas last year.
Ian will be joined in the booth by CBS Sports’ analysts Nate Burleson and Matt Ryan. Burleson and Ryan typically work on the CBS pregame desk, but they will get the opportunity to call a game this Christmas. CBS Sports’ Melanie Collins will return to the sidelines on Christmas this year while NFL Network’s Sara Walsh joins the Christmas broadcast for the first time.
Meanwhile, Noah will team up with Drew Brees, who has recently returned to broadcasting with Fox Sports. Brees also was part of Netflix’s broadcast crew last year, but will work as a game analyst this time. CBS Sports’ AJ Ross and The Athletic’s Dianna Russini will both work the sidelines on Christmas Day for Netflix for the first time. Rules analyst Gene Steratore returns for both games.
Along with the announcers, Kay Adams, NBC Sports’ Devin McCourty, Hall of Fame receiver Michael Irvin and Commanders running back Austin Ekeler will be on the desk for Game 1. Adams will be the host while McCourty, Irvin and Ekeler will each be analysts.
For Game 2, NFL Network’s Jamie Erdahl, NFL Network’s Manti Te’o and former NFL receiver Brandon Marshall will be at the desk. Erdahl will host as Te’o and Marshall work as analysts.
