STAMFORD, Conn. – August 21, 2019 – The Pittsburgh Steelers take on the Tennessee Titans in NFL preseason action from Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tenn., this Sunday, Aug. 25, at 8 p.m. ET on NBC.

Al Michaels (play-by-play), in his record 34th season as the voice of the NFL’s premier primetime package; 16-time Emmy Award-winner Cris Collinsworth; three-time Emmy Award-winning sideline reporter Michele Tafoya; and rules analyst and three-time Super Bowl referee Terry McAulay call Steelers-Titans.

New to the broadcast this week, the High Sky camera will be used throughout the game as the primary play-by-play, live game coverage camera, stationed at the line of scrimmage for every offensive snap. The High Sky camera will be positioned approximately 50 feet above the ground perpendicular to the line of scrimmage, providing a unique viewer perspective leading up to and including the snap of the ball.

A sneak preview of the all-new SNF show open will air at halftime of Sunday night’s telecast. Carrie Underwood, the seven-time Grammy Award-winner and multi-platinum recording artist, stars in the NBC SNF show open for the seventh consecutive year and welcomes Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Joan Jett, who makes an appearance during Underwood’s performance. The full 2019 NBC Sunday Night Football show open will debut on Sunday, Sept. 8, as the Super Bowl champion New England Patriots host the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The NFL’s 100th season begins on Thursday, Sept. 5, as the Chicago Bears host the Green Bay Packers at Soldier Field on NBC.
