NFL Playoffs Divisional Round game announcers: Who's Calling it ESPN, FOX, CBS

2026 NFL Playoff announcers schedule, TV broadcasters, commentators, announcing crews for divisional round games





Wild-card weekend around the NFL lived up to the anticipation, with four games coming down to the wire. What does the league have for an encore?

Every team still in the hunt for the Lombardi Trophy plays in the divisional round, with the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks joining the fray after opening the playoffs with a bye. The Broncos will face a steep challenge as they host Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills, while the Seahawks will see the division-rival San Francisco 49ers for the second consecutive week.

On Sunday, the Houston Texans and their stellar defense will try to end the New England Patriots' dream season, while the Chicago Bears are hoping a massive comeback isn't necessary to survive the Los Angeles Rams at Soldier Field.

Four networks will broadcast the action on divisional weekend, setting the stage for the AFC and NFC championship games.
