If you're watching any of the NFL games on CBS on Sunday in 2024 Week 12, you may notice an absence: There's no Jim Nantz or Tony Romo on the mics anywhere for the network.

Why is that the case?

There's a very good reason: Nantz and Romo will be on two games in Week 13, with the Chicago Bears and Detroit Lions game on the day of Thanksgiving game, and then they'll be calling another game on Sunday.

So the top CBS broadcast team gets a week off, as you can see from the broadcaster schedule for the slate of games this Sunday.

There's your answer!
