Netflix is airing their first live football games on Christmas Day with the Steelers-Chiefs and Ravens-Texans, and after months of reporting and rumors, the streamer officially announced who would be on the call for the two games and who will handle studio coverage.
For the Steelers-Chiefs game, Ian Eagle, Nate Burleson and J.J. Watt will call the game, as previously reported, while Melanie Collins of CBS and Stacey Dales of NFL Network will work as the two sideline reporters. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport will also serve as a part of the gameday coverage as an insider, while former NFL referee and CBS rules analyst Gene Steratore will be the rules analyst for both games.
