Buck, Aikman to call Thursday Night Football
by Dane Belbeck from on (#3Q5VK)
You can expect to hear a lot of Joe Buck and Troy Aikman this year, as FOX's lead broadcast duo will add Thursday Night Football to their regular Sunday commitments for the 2018 season.
FOX Sports president Eric Shanks told John Ourand of Sports Business Daily that the duo will call their usual Sunday doubleheader games while also working the extra games for the first year that Thursday Night Football appears on the network.
CBS used its lead broadcast team of Jim Nantz and Tony Romo for Thursday Night Football on its network last season, and Monday's announcement shows FOX will follow suit.
