Non-football Eagles to be featured on Netflix Christmas Day games

The Philadelphia Eagles won’t be playing on Christmas Day. However, a pair of announcers with the surname Eagle will work the NFL doubleheader.

Andrew Marchand of The Athletic reported Thursday that Ian Eagle and his son Noah Eagle will do play-by-play on each game.

Per Marchand:

The play-by-play broadcasters for the doubleheader will be the father-son combination of Ian Eagle and Noah Eagle, while the analysts will be Nate Burleson, J.J. Watt and Greg Olsen.

In the early game between the Steelers and the Chiefs, Ian Eagle will be joined by Burelson and Watt. Adding to the family theme, T.J. Watt, J.J.’s brother, is the Steelers’ star pass rusher.

The late matchup featuring the Ravens and Texans will include Noah Eagle and Olsen.
