The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Chicago Bears will be facing off on Sunday Night Football, as both teams are coming in on a recent hot streak. The Buccaneers have won their last two games since Baker Mayfield returned from injury, but it's been their defense that has led the way. For the Bears, they're playing well on both sides of the ball, and they arguably look like one of the best teams in the NFC.
That means this should be a good matchup, and the even better news is that neither team has any major injuries to report. Unfortunately, there will be someone important missing the game, as Mike Tirico shared that he'll be absent due to a health issue.
“Unfortunately, I will have to miss tonight's game in Chicago due to a health issue. I look forward to watching tonight and can't wait to be back with Cris, Melissa and the rest of our NF team next Sunday night in Cincinnati,” Tirico wrote.
Noah Eagle is set to call the game with Cris Collinsworth and Melissa Stark.
