Most of the Country Will Get Steelers-49ers Broadcast
The Steelers vs. 49ers matchup at Acrisure Stadium on Sunday will be broadcast to most of the United States on FOX, according to the TV broadcast map released by 506 Sports. It has the widest distribution of the opening 1:00 p.m. games on FOX, covering over two-thirds of the country.
Nearly all of Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West Virginia for the Steelers locally will have the game. Moreover, the entire West Coast will get the coverage with the 49ers as a West Coast team. The markets most affected without the game include Arizona, Maryland, Georgia, the Carolinas, and the northern and central parts of Florida. Fans in the Midwest will see the Steelers on their screens with those minimal markets affected by the TV map.
The Jacksonville-Indianapolis will take up that portion of Florida and most of Indiana. Atlanta-Carolina covers the south, while Washington-Arizona will swallow most of Maryland. New Orleans and Austin, Texas, are other markets that other games affect. The only part of Pennsylvania that will not get the game is the very southern part of Pennsylvania around Franklin and Adams County.
Out-of-town fans who do not get game coverage can watch the NFL Sunday Ticket on YouTube TV. Joe Davis, Daryl Johnston, and Pam Oliver will be on the call of the 49ers-Steelers clash.
Next week, the Steelers will have their first national broadcast on ESPN when they face the Cleveland Browns in a Monday night clash at 8:15 p.m. Joe Buck, Troy Aikman, and Lisa Salters will be on the call for that game.
