NBC Sports announcer Mike Tirico will miss an upcoming edition of "Sunday Night Football" due to an undisclosed health issue, with Noah Eagle stepping in as his replacement, according to a report from Awful Announcing.

The network confirmed that Eagle, who has called NFL games for NBC and Peacock, will handle play-by-play duties for the prime-time broadcast. Tirico has been the lead voice of "Sunday Night Football" since 2022, following Al Michaels' departure to Amazon Prime Video.

No specific timeline was provided for Tirico's return. The nature of his health issue has not been disclosed.
