NBC was originally scheduled to broadcast the 2021 Super Bowl but the network swapped years in order to have both the Super Bowl and Winter Olympics in February 2022.
For those looking to stream the matchup, there are multiple options.
The Super Bowl can be be streamed live on Peacock’s premium tier as well as the NBC Sports App and NBCSports.com. Peacock is available on Apple TV, Roku, PlayStation, Fire TV and more.
While many are undoubtedly interested in seeing the Bengals take on the Rams, star-studded musical acts are always a big part of Super Bowl Sunday - especially the halftime show.
Dr. Dre, Mary J. Blige, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar and Snoop Dogg will headline this year.
Other musical performers include Mickey Guyton, who will sing the national anthem prior to kickoff, and Grammy-nominated artist Jhené Aiko, who will sing “America the Beautiful” ahead of the anthem.
After the game wraps up, stay tuned for the NBC 5 News, which will air at 11 p.m.
