Patrick To Host Versus' 'NFL Turning Point'
Football Night in America's Dan Patrick will host NFL Turning Point, the new weekly show co-produced by NFL and the NBC Sports Group.
Patrick, the veteran sportscaster, will lead the hour-long show that kicks off Sept. 15 at 10 p.m. (ET/PT) on Versus and will air throughout the NFL regular season, with eyes on the crucial moment of several games from the prior weekend, via NFL's cinematography and sideline and on-field audio.
During its premiere episode, NFL Turning Point will examine the Dallas Cowboys-New York Jets game on NBC's Sunday Night Football during which the Jets' Pro Bowl cornerback Darrelle Revis, who made a key late-game interception, was wired for sound.
Also on tap: new San Francisco 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh on the mic against the Seattle Seahawks and exclusive audio from the field and bench during the 2011 NFL opener between the New Orleans Saints and the defending champion Green Bay Packers.
There will also be a look ahead with Michael Vick: Then and Now as the controversial Philadelphia quarterback leads the Eagles into Atlanta against his old team the Falcons and their nest at the Georgia Dome during NBC's second SNF presentation.
Patrick will conclude each show with a segment featuring his Football Night colleagues Tony Dungy and Rodney Harrison that covers the most relevant NFL topics and looks ahead to the upcoming SNF game on the Peacock.
