Westwood One will provide play-by-play coverage of the National Football League's entire primetime regular season as well as every postseason game, marking the 38th consecutive season as the network radio partner of the NFL. This will be the 52nd time that the network will broadcast the Super Bowl to a national audience.

Westwood One Sports will provide play-by-play coverage of the NFL's 2024 national regular season primetime games including Monday Night Football, Thursday Night Football, and Sunday Night Football plus Thanksgiving Day, Black Friday, Christmas Day and NFL international games. It will also carry the entire postseason including the Wild Card and Divisional Playoffs and the AFC and NFC Conference Championship Games. Westwood One's coverage will culminate on Sunday, February 9 with Super Bowl LIX, live from New Orleans.

Westwood One's coverage of the 2024 NFL regular season will begin September 5 at NFL Kickoff when the Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs host the Baltimore Ravens. On Friday, September 6, Westwood One will cover the first ever NFL Game to be played in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The weekly Sunday night schedule begins September 8, when the Detroit Lions host the New York Giants. Monday Night Football starts September 9, when the Jets play the San Francisco 49ers.

Kevin Harlan, three-time NSMA Sportscaster of the Year, and Hall of Fame Quarterback and NFL Network analyst Kurt Warner will once again be the lead broadcast crew, calling the Kickoff Game, Monday Night Football and Super Bowl LIX for the network. This will be Harlan's 15th full season behind the Westwood One microphone and Warner's 11th season as an analyst for the network.

Ryan Radtke and Mike Golic will be the primary announcers for Sunday Night Football, while Ian Eagle returns as the main play-by-play voice for Thursday Night Football. Kevin Kugler will broadcast select Thursday night games as well.
