NBC's "Sunday Night Football" broadcast will look different in 2026.
While Mike Tirico and Cris Collinsworth will be back, the team around them is going to look a lot different. Tony Dungy is out, as is Matthew Berry. Meanwhile, it sounds like it's possible that others, like Rodney Harrison and Jac Collinsworth, could be ousted, as well.
In their place: Mike Tomlin, the former Pittsburgh Steelers coach, is heading to NBC. Other significant additions could be made, as well.

Tomlin, the Super Bowl-winning coach, appears to be very well liked from a TV perspective.
"Prepare for an endless onslaught of Tomlinisms on your TV!" one fan wrote.
"He’s going to go 9-8 in his Sunday Night Football picks," one fan joked.
"Congrats to Coach T! Gonna be interesting to see him operate in that space," one fan added.
Others are looking forward to the other changes.
"He has always been subpar on TV. Super Awkward dude," one fan said of Berry. "Stay with what you’re good at Matt. In a cubicle."
"Thank goodness. But will someone else with a sportsbook background take his place, or will NBC leave the betting aspect alone?" one shared.
