Super Bowl 2017 Announcers: What To Know About Joe Buck, Troy Aikman, Erin Andrews And Chris Myers

While much of the attention of Super Bowl LI will center on the Atlanta Falcons and New England Patriots, the halftime show and the commercials, there is also plenty to know about the television coverage of the event. After several hours of pregame, the eyes and ears of the game turns to two broadcasters in the booth and the two sideline reporters.

Fox has the broadcast rights to this year's Super Bowl as part of a rotation with NBC and CBS. The Super Bowl kicks off at about 6:39 p.m ET at NRG Stadium in Houston with a television audience that should easily surpass 100 million.

The announcers include Joe Buck, Troy Aikman, Erin Andrews and Chris Myers. All four are veteran sports broadcasters with only Aikman working almost exclusively on NFL coverage. Aikman will be providing analysis as the color commentator, while Andrews and Myers are the sideline reporters. Most of the talking will be done by Buck, who serves as the play-by-play broadcaster.

Chris Myers

Myers is an acclaimed play-by-play announcer, reporter and studio host. Sunday’s game will be the host’s fifth Super Bowl game reporting from the sideline. He previously contributed to Fox’s NASCAR, MLB and NFL coverage. He also hosted the “CMI: Chris Myers Interview” program on Fox Sports Radio. Before Fox, Myers spent several years at ESPN.

Erin Andrews

Andrews is the network’s lead NFL sideline reporter, and often conducts a bulk of the one-on-one interviews. She worked at ESPN for eight years before joining Fox in 2012. While most may know her from sideline reporting for college football games and hosting "Dancing with the Stars," Andrews has covered the World Series, the Daytona 500 and NFL playoff games.

Troy Aikman

Aikman, Fox's lead NFL color commentator, won three Super Bowls as a quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys. Sunday will mark the fifth time he has covered the Super Bowl as a broadcaster.

Joe Buck

Buck is the network’s lead NFL, MLB and USGA play-by-play announcer. He has been the lead NFL play-by-play broadcaster for Fox since 2002 and has been with the network for 23 years. Buck is a seven-time Emmy Award-winner and became the youngest World Series play-by-play announcer when he called a game at age 27. His father, Jack Buck, was a longtime play-by-play broadcaster.
