CBS Sports’ Ian Eagle, who will handle the play-by-play for the Chiefs-Bills game on Sunday, is racking up frequent-flier miles as well as cornering the market on throat lozenges.
Sunday’s telecast will be his fifth NFL game in an 11-day period, which might be a record.
Then he goes onto the Arizona at Philadelphia game on Thanksgiving night followed by Baltimore at Cincinnati on Nov. 30, making it seven games in 18 days.
And you thought Kevin Harlan was busy.
Here’s how the Eagle has flown:
Thursday, Nov. 13 -- Jets-Patriots (radio, Westwood One)
Sunday, Nov. 16 -- Raiders-Dolphins (CBS TV)
Monday, Nov. 17 -- Browns-Bills (radio, Westwood One, filling in for Marv Albert)
Thursday, Nov. 20 -- Bengals-Steelers (radio, Westwod One)
Sunday, Nov. 23 -- Bills-Chiefs (CBS TV)
Thursday, Nov. 27 _ Cardinals-Eagles (radio, Westwood One)
Sunday, Nov. 30 _ Ravens-Bengals (CBS TV)
