Mike Tirico Wants NFL to Aggressively Ramp Up Flex Scheduling

“I would lay it out like the Premier League,” the NBC broadcaster said at the Front Office Sports Tuned In event. One of the most prominent broadcasters calling NFL games says he would like to see the league make far more extensive use of its flexible-scheduling policies. Mike Tirico, the play-by-play announcer for NBC’s Sunday Night Football broadcasts, told Front Office Sports that the league could choose the slate of games for particular weeks of the season and then assign specific time slots weeks in advance.
