NBC Sports announced its roster of more than 150 commentators for NBCUniversal’s coverage of the Olympic Games Paris 2024, scheduled for July 26-Aug. 11 across NBC, Peacock, USA Network, CNBC, E!, GOLF Channel, Telemundo, Universo, and NBCUniversal’s digital platforms.

Those selected to provide the wrestling coverage for NBC is veteran Play-by-Play announcer Jason Knapp, and 2012 Olympic champion and six-time World champion Jordan Burroughs as the analyst.

Jason Knapp will serve as the wrestling play-by-play announcer for the fourth time. Four-time world champion and 2012 Olympic gold medalist Jordan Burroughs returns as an analyst after making his NBC Olympics debut in Tokyo.

Burroughs is one of the greatest wrestlers in history from any nation. He has won the most World and Olympic gold medals of any U.S. wrestler with seven (six World gold, one Olympic gold), and has a combined 10 World and Olympic medals. He also has extensive experience as an announcer for wrestling and other events.

Knapp has been a play-by-play announcer for six Olympics for NBC, including wrestling at the 2012, 2016 and 2020 Olympics. He has also called World Cup/World Championship events in beach volleyball, basketball, curling, speed skating, short track speed skating, swimming, show jumping and others sports across the networks of NBC.

Burroughs and Knapp will be based at NBC Sports’ International Broadcast Center in Stamford, Conn. during the Olympic Games.

The NBC roster includes Olympians and Paralympians who have won a combined 90 Olympic medals. Team NBC would have had the most gold medals (59) of any country in the Tokyo Olympics, and the second-most total medals behind only Team USA (113). A member of Team NBC has been part of Team USA in every Summer Games dating back to the 1968 Mexico City Olympics.

Mike Tirico will host the Olympic Primetime Show (on NBC and Peacock) for the fourth rime, and leads a host roster which includes Maria Taylor, Rebecca Lowe, Craig Melvin, Ahmed Fareed, and Damon Hack

Kelly Clarkson, Snoop Dogg, Jimmy Fallon, Peyton Manning, Alex Cooper, and Leslie Jones are among the celebrity commentators in Paris.
