Mike Tirico to miss Bears-Buccaneers broadcast with health issue; Noah Eagle to fill in

Mike Tirico will miss the Bears-Buccaneers game because of an undisclosed health issue, with NBC’s lead college football announcer Noah Eagle replacing him alongside Cris Collinsworth. The game had been set to mark Tirico’s 300th NFL broadcast. Tirico intends to return for the Nov. 15 Steelers-Bengals game in Cincinnati; his statement describes a planned return, not a completed recovery.
