Game coverage is usually preceded by the and and is followed on most weeks by The OT. The latter two shows feature the same studio hosts and analysts for both programs, who also contribute to the former. In weeks when Fox airs a, the late broadcast (which airs nationwide in nearly all markets, there typically being only one or two games taking place at the time) airs under the brand America's Game of the Week. The network aired its inaugural NFL game telecast on August 12, 1994, with a preseason game between the and the at in San Francisco.

Coverage formally began the following month on September 4, with the premiere of Fox NFL Sunday, followed by a slate of six regionally televised regular season games on the first Sunday of the.

Fox management, having seen the critical role that programming had played in the growth of British satellite service, believed that sports, and specifically professional football, would be the engine that would turn Fox into a major network the quickest. Early bids [ ] To this end, Fox had bid aggressively for football broadcast rights almost from the start.

It notably passed on the, which had hoped to move to fall in, the same time Fox was to debut, and was seeking a broadcast contract. In 1987, Fox's first full year on the air, initially hedged on renewing its contract to carry – then the league's crown-jewel program – as was in the middle of negotiations to reach a new contract, due to an increased expense of the rights. Fox made an offer to the National Football League to acquire the Monday Night Football contract for the same amount ABC that had been paying to carry the package, about US$1.3 billion at the time. However, the NFL, in part because Fox had not established itself as a major network, chose to renew its contract with ABC. Meanwhile, after the Fox Broadcasting Company was launched,, founder of the, proposed the creation of the 'American Football Federation', a league that would be made up of ten teams and draft graduates who were declared academically ineligible to play by the.

Despite having a few successful shows in its slate, the network did not have a significant market share until the early 1990s when Fox parent (which became through the July 2013 of its publishing unit, now the current ) began to upgrade some of its local affiliates – and eventually purchased additional stations from other television station groups, such as and ' and, making it the largest owner of television stations in the United States. The time now filled by Fox NFL on Sunday afternoons during the fall and winter months was formerly in the control of the stations themselves (and still is to some extent outside of the NFL season, particularly during weeks when no sports programming is scheduled at all by the network, as well as on non-doubleheader weeks during the season), which usually filled the timeslots with either syndicated television series (both first-run and off-network) and/or movie blocks. Sunday afternoon timeslot in the spring is filled by 's coverage of the. Fox outbids CBS for the NFC package [ ] Six years after its first attempt, the league's television contracts for both conferences and for the and Monday football packages came up for renewal again in 1993, when Fox made what at the time, was a bold and aggressive move to acquire the rights. Knowing that it would likely need to bid considerably more than the incumbent networks to acquire a piece of the package, Fox bid $1.58 billion to obtain a four-year contract for the broadcast rights to the (NFC), exceeding CBS's bid by more than $100 million per year.

The NFC was considered the more desirable conference (as opposed to the (AFC), whose television package was being carried at the time by ) due to its presence in most of the largest U.S. Markets, such as, and. To the surprise and shock of many in the sports and media industries, on December 17, 1993, the NFL selected the bid offered by Fox, in the process stripping of football for the first time since.

Fox's coverage, in addition to being able to televise NFC regular season and playoff games, also included the exclusive U.S. Television rights to (held in 1997) under the initial contract, which took effect with the.

CBS – which under the stewardship of then, developed an overly budgeted and stodgy image – had apparently underestimated the value of its NFL rights with respect to its revenues and to its opportunities for other programming on the network. Indeed, Fox was still an upstart player in 1993, not yet considered on par with CBS, NBC and ABC, the three longer established major networks (Fox, by comparison, had debuted in October 1986 as the only venture at a since the 1956 demise of the to truly compete with the 'Big Three'). The network already had offbeat hits such as, and on its schedule. However, Fox did not have a sports division up to that point, and its was a few years away from fruition (most Fox stations outside of a few owned by the network did not even produce their own news programming), and Fox affiliates were often either full-power stations or stations. CBS personalities move to Fox [ ].

See also: and The vast resources that had allowed the network to grow quickly, primarily to the detriment of CBS. After bringing in from Murdoch's U.K.-based to head-up the new Fox Sports division, Fox began luring over members of the staff, hiring longtime producer Ed Goren as Hill's second-in-command. Fox was also able to procure and to be its lead broadcast team, a capacity they had been serving for CBS., who was previously co-host of, was added to serve as the pregame show's lead analyst. And also came over from CBS and became the network's #2 broadcast team, while, who had called play-by-play for CBS' game telecasts, was hired to be the studio host.

Fox then sought to raise its station profile as the start of its NFL contract came closer by approaching other broadcasters about switching their stations (channels 2 to 13) to the network from one of the other established networks. On May 23, 1994, News Corporation struck an alliance with New World Communications, a television and film that by now was a key station group with several VHF CBS affiliates in NFC markets in its portfolio, and wary of a CBS without football. Through the deal, in which also Fox purchased a 20% interest in the company, nearly all of New World's stations (including several that the company was in the process of acquiring from and at the time the deal was struck) switched en masse to Fox beginning that September and continuing through September 1996 as existing affiliation contracts with their previous network partners came to an end (network subsidiary bought New World Communications outright in July 1996 ).

In the summer of 1994, (a recently formed between Fox and ) purchased four stations from Burnham Broadcasting, which also became Fox affiliates between September 1995 and January 1996. In the NFC markets affected by the deals, Fox gained VHF affiliates in eight primary markets (,,,,,, and ) and three satellite markets (, and ), adding to the.

The new affiliates in St. Louis and Greensboro switched shortly before the relocated from Los Angeles and the began play with the 1995 preseason. Besides giving the network leverage in attracting new affiliates, the rights gave Fox many new viewers and a platform for advertising its other shows. Fox's acquisition of the National Football Conference contract severely affected CBS, beyond losing a marquee sporting event and some of its key talent and production staff. Not only was it largely relegated to former Fox affiliates and lesser known in the markets affected by Fox's affiliation agreement with New World, but CBS' older-skewing programming slate caused it to struggle further in the, pushing it to third place, ahead of fourth-place Fox. CBS had hoped to replace the NFL with rights, but Fox then promptly outbid CBS for those as well; in addition, Fox took over the rights to in 1996, after the cancellation of, which was a joint venture between NBC and ABC at the time and had replaced CBS two years prior. CBS began rebuilding itself after the network took the AFC television contract from in 1998.

A brand new era [ ] Fox's acquisition of National Football League television rights was a watershed event not only for the network, but for the NFL as well. Not only was it the event that placed Fox on a par with the 'Big Three' broadcast networks, but it also ushered in an era of growth for the NFL, which continues on largely to this day. While the heavy concentration of major cities in NFC markets – as opposed to the smaller markets generally served by the AFC – virtually guaranteed a substantial audience, its instant success has nonetheless been remarkable given the differences between Fox's coverage and the coverage provided by, CBS,, and NBC up to that time. 'Same Game, New Attitude' [ ] Fox used the slogan 'Same Game, New Attitude' to promote its new NFL package (it did the same for its new coverage in 1996). The network's pre-game show, focused more on entertainment and less on in-depth discussion of.

Fox's NFL coverage also introduced bolder and innovative graphics, for instance, the, a continuous on-screen time-and-score graphic that Hill had originally used on 's coverage of the. It also used to include the sounds of the stands and of the on-field action (including conversations and strategy outlines between coaches and players). These innovations were adopted by rival networks and helped to drive the development of further innovations such as the on-air display of. Post-game show: The OT [ ] Beginning in, Fox's post-game show was expanded to an hour-long slot (regularly scheduled at 7:30 p.m. ) and branded as The OT (a possibly intentional nod to the title of the Fox drama series ), competing against NBC's primetime pregame.

The program, in addition to providing analysis of the day's NFL games, sends viewers to the remaining ongoing regional games after their main game ends (or meets the NFL's rules regarding a switch to a more compelling matchup, outside of home markets) until the end of the last game. Fox had previously scheduled first-run sitcoms, the comedic video series, and animated series in the 7:00 p.m. Hour during the NFL season, but these were often subjected to pre-emption (resulting in episodes being delayed by one week or more) due to overruns of late afternoon games into the hour, which impacted their ratings performance; as a result of the postgame show's expansion, the network generally delayed carriage of first-run programming during the first hour of Sunday prime time to midseason (one exception was the freshman sitcom in 2014, which was pushed to the hour that November due to struggling ratings in its original 9:30 Eastern slot), primarily limited to of already failed series. Changes for 2006 [ ] After the season, James Brown left Fox to return to, where he would become the host of the CBS network's NFL pregame show The NFL Today. On August 16,, after weeks of speculation, the network officially announced that would take over the role as host vacated by Brown.

The move also resulted in the show switching from being broadcast from a permanent Los Angeles studio to a portable studio configuration, similar to the pregame show for, in which analysts, and joined Buck at the stadium site to which Buck is assigned as announcer for one of that week's telecasts. Worked all halftime shows and all postgame shows on Sundays when no doubleheader was scheduled, also from the same game site with the same analysts. Menefee hosted Fox NFL Sunday during the several weeks in October when Buck was not available; during that time, Buck called postseason games, including the. The pregame shows on October 15, 22 and 29 were broadcast from the Los Angeles studios; the show returned to the road on November 5. It was also announced that weather reporter Jillian Barberie (now ) would not return for the coming season, as Barberie wished to stay at home in Los Angeles with her family. Barberie did participate in at least one of the studio shows.

During the 2006 season, provided updates highlighting other NFL games during the Fox broadcasts from the Los Angeles studio. On November 17,, a source told the that the final two pregame shows of the would take place in the Los Angeles studios, with Buck hosting and taking Buck's place on play-by-play duties at the games alongside. The source cited that declining no longer justified its high production costs, including.

A Fox spokesman would only say that changes were being considered. [ ] Changes for 2007 [ ] After the 2006 NFL season, Fox NFL Sunday returned to the Los Angeles studio throughout the entire 2007 regular season and for the two weeks of that year's postseason. Curt Menefee became the full-time host of the pregame show, while Joe Buck reverted to strictly handling play-by-play duties. 2010 Monday night special [ ] Fox presented a limited Monday night game between the and on December 13,. The game had been originally scheduled to be played on the afternoon on December 12, but due to the collapse of the roof of the early that morning due to weight from heavy snowpack, the game was moved on short notice to in as that facility already had their full television setup still in place after a – game. Fox Sports had kept their cameras on in the Metrodome overnight the night before the originally scheduled game day and captured the stadium roof collapse in full detail; the video of the early morning collapse, captured at multiple angles, aired on that day's edition of Fox NFL Sunday and quickly went. The game was only made available on the main Fox stations in the New York and media markets; owned-and-operated station and affiliate aired the game in the New York City and television markets, while – owned-and-operated station, and affiliates in and in carried the game for the Vikings' markets.

The game was also carried on satellite provider through its package. Coincidentally, this was the first game since that did not start an NFL game, as he was placed on the inactive list due to a shoulder injury, ending his streak of 297 consecutive regular season games; started in his place and subsequently had his first ever down in an NFL game.

In addition, it was the first ever regular-season Monday night game in Ford Field. Long term contract extension (2014–2022) [ ] On December 14, 2011, the NFL, along with Fox, and, and announced that the league had extended rights deal with all three networks through the 2022 season. The three-network rights deal includes the continued yearly rotation of the Super Bowl between Fox, NBC and CBS, meaning that Fox would air Super Bowls (2014), (2017), (2020), and LVII (2023).

The 2013 season marked Fox's 20th season of NFL coverage. Under the terms of the new contract, which began with the 2014 season, the flexible scheduling rule started in 2006 was modified. In order to ensure both Fox and CBS would feature all 32 NFL teams at least once during the season, the league reserves the right to 'cross-flex' the games to the other network, to ensure both networks would have a minimum of five games weekly, with a minimum of one game in each slot.

The cross-flex rule also permits the NFL to change networks for Week 17 games in order to guarantee all four games (both networks air a doubleheader in Week 17) have playoff importance and gives each network an equally important primary game in each time slot. Install Visio From Iso File. Thus, while Fox still mainly airs games in which both teams are NFC members and games in which the road team is from the NFC, Fox began occasionally airing games between two AFC teams and games in which the road team is an AFC franchise. However, Fox will still air significantly fewer of these games than CBS, because of the fact that that network owns an additional contract to air games on. Fox's first interconference game involving an AFC road opponent was actually a special situation in 2011 between the and.

The league generally wants both CBS and Fox to air three games in the early kickoff slot and Fox only had two scheduled games that week. The first game between two AFC teams that was sent to Fox using cross-flex aired in Week 6 of the 2014 season, between the and the. Commentators [ ] In-studio personalities [ ].

Further information: and Theme music [ ] The iconic NFL on Fox was composed by; at the time of its introduction, Schreer considered the theme to be a contrast to other television sports themes, as it carried a dark, orchestral, and cinematic sound. The music was partially inspired by the opening theme of 's 1989 film; Fox Sports president David Hill had heard the theme while waiting in line for a ride at an amusement park in California, and suggested to creative director George Greenberg (who had recently defected to Fox from ) in a phone call that the overlying theme for Fox's NFL theme music should be 'Batman plays football'. Greenberg would enlist Schreer to compose the theme, describing Hill's request as sounding like ' Batman on steroids'. Schreer and his team pitched three separate songs to Greenberg and Hill, who then spliced them together into one for the final version. Beginning at the, the NFL on Fox theme became the official theme music for all Fox Sports broadcasts, regardless of sport. In particular, current Fox Sports president Eric Shanks believed that the special theme music it had previously used for post-season baseball was not upbeat enough, and that the change would '[give] all of our sports sort of that marquee feel and it gives us a more upbeat way to come on the air.' The change also resulted in the removal of the long-time theme (also composed by Schreer).

In-game music [ ] In December, Fox experimented with using an in-game soundtrack during a regional game between the and. The following week on December 16, Fox publicly announced that it would also feature it during a game on December 20 between the and. Fox Sports president Eric Shanks revealed that composer had contributed music for the experiment, and saw potential in the concept, explaining that 'just like music in movies, you have to use it at the right times. And imagine trying to score a movie the first time you're seeing it.' The concept was met with mixed reaction; sports blogger believed that the music was 'goofy', distracting and added nothing to the game. Digital on-screen graphics [ ].

NFL on Fox logo used from to. By, the graphic changed to a full-statistics panel, where down and distance, penalty, and key in-game statistics would pop in and out when necessary. The basic design of the scoring bug, which was named the 'FoxBox', mimicked the version used on Fox's MLB coverage.

For Fox's coverage of at the end of the, the starting lineups were shown using a virtual television. To television viewers, the effect appeared as if the end zone opened up and a giant television screen rose from the ground. The virtual television display showed video announcing the starting lineups. The virtual television effect was provided by using its L-VIS virtual graphics system. 2001–2002 [ ] For the, NFL telecasts began using the same graphics that were previously introduced on Fox's NASCAR and Major League Baseball coverage.

The graphics package was an updated version of the 1998 design, but the FoxBox changed from a compact bug to a banner spanning the top of the screen, and included a scrolling graphic displaying real-time scores of other games in progress. A simple black rectangle with a shaded translucent area spanned the top of the screen from left to right, displaying the abbreviations of both teams in white. The scores were shown in white boxes next to the team. The center showed the game clock in white, to its right was the quarter ('1st QTR', '2nd QTR', etc.), and to the right of the quarter was the play clock; the NFL on Fox logo was on the far right. First seen during and used full-time for the season, the white scoring boxes were re-colored to yellow.

This was also the last year that the score graphic used an effect in which a team's initials flashed in its two primary colors accompanied by percussive sound beats when that team scored (for example, when the scored a touchdown during a Fox telecast, the 'GB' initials and box would flash in green and gold for a few seconds as the six points for the TD were added, then again with the extra point). This banner was used for Major League Baseball on Fox broadcasts through most of the 2004 season. 2003–2005 [ ]. NFL on Fox logo used from to.

For the, Fox's NFL coverage debuted a new graphics package. Instead of being a large black rectangle consistently, the score banner alternated between a large black rectangle and several small, black parallelograms, and the shaded area above it was removed. Team logos were now used, in place of their abbreviations. During the however, the logos were removed and the team abbreviations were rendered again in white lettering in the team's main color. The banner returned to a large black rectangle at the start of the.

The team logos returned, this time looking more 'three-dimensional' in appearance and with their respective abbreviations beside the logos. Electronic eggcrate in the team's primary color was used whenever that certain team calls timeout, scores a touchdown, or a field goal. It would be shown in red whenever the team challenges a play. In addition during a touchdown or field goal, the right side of the banner would have a split flashing 'light', then the words 'TOUCHDOWN or FIELD GOAL (team)' in the same electronic lettering scrolling left. Midway through, the team logos were once again replaced with the abbreviations. First seen on the postseason broadcasts that year, this time, they were rendered in electronic eggcrate lettering in the team's main color.

When team-specific information was displayed in the banner, such as the of a punt or a touchdown, the abbreviation would revert to the team's logo. During the 2005 holiday season, for the Week 15 Saturday game (between the and ), a new white banner, resembling a chrome finish (first introduced at the start of Fox's coverage of the ) debuted, with animated snow accumulating on top with an animated snowplow periodically clearing the snow from the screen. The following week, the new banner was adopted for all games, however without the snow animation.

The team abbreviations became white letters against the team's main color. This banner was used for Major League Baseball on Fox broadcasts through the. 2006–2009 [ ]. NFL on Fox logo used from to. Fox Sports again unveiled a new graphics package for its NFL coverage at the start of the. The score banner began featuring the real-time scores as a permanent fixture on the extreme right side, while the coloring of the banner changes to the colors of the team currently possessing the ball. During playoff games and games featured on days other than the network's traditional game broadcast days or holidays (such as the AFC/NFC game), the scoring bar instead shows either the NFL Thanksgiving logo, the NFL Divisional Playoffs/NFC Championship logo, or a special banner with a message from Fox Sports observing whichever holiday falls during that week (for instance, and a party horn with a traditional message).

Alternate NFL on Fox logo used from 2003 to. At the beginning of the 2006 season, a virtual on-field graphic showing an arrow pointing towards the direction of advancement and the down/yardage information began to be used on all plays. This feature was then added by,, (for its game telecasts) and (beginning with the ). At the same time, the down/yardage information is also displayed on the scoring banner, resulting in duplicate presentation of the same information. The bar was also enhanced for and is thinner than previous versions, with little translucency.

The NFL on Fox logo was also repositioned to the far left instead of the far right. During high definition broadcasts, the area above the banner features a translucent slanting pattern going from left-to-right across the screen.

During the 2006 preseason telecasts, the quarter was indicated by four illuminating buttons (the number of buttons that were lit indicated the quarter being played), but due to difficulties in visibility, the quarter returned to being numerically represented for the regular season. On the rare occasion during a game in which the field lines are not visible (such as those dealing with snow or rain), a small bug pops up on the bottom left side of the screen with the logo of the team that is currently in possession as well as text indicating where the ball is (e.g., Arizona-Own 41 Yard Line). Beginning on November 15, 2009 (Week 11 of the ), scores from other ongoing NFL games that appear on the right side of the banner would have an arrow indicating which team was in possession of the ball; a red arrow indicated that the team is at the.

Fox's NFL telecasts were the only major telecasts of the league's games to not feature timeout indicators until the, save for the number of timeouts that each team has on the right side of the banner. December 31, 2006 San Francisco/Denver game [ ] There was one exception to this package for the 2006 season, as Fox had to revert to the then-current scoring banner and graphics package used by (and formerly the main one used by Fox Sports) for its final regular season game of the year, the vs. The on December 31,, due to a hitting, preventing the usual amount of equipment for Fox's NFL coverage to arrive before the game. (the FSN network that served the Denver market at the time, since replaced by ) assisted in the production of the game on short notice by providing the graphical production and other production services.

In addition, the ' graphic lines denoting the and were unavailable for this broadcast. This graphic was also used in Week 5 of the 2007 season in a game between the and. 2010–2013 [ ] A new graphics package for Fox's NFL telecasts debuted during an August 19, pre-season game, as the network began to broadcast its sports programming with graphics optimized for 16:9 displays rather than the, resulting in the network asking cable and satellite providers to comply and use the #10 code to send out over Fox programming, which displays 16:9 content in a format on 4:3 screens (largely on the analog affiliate feed carried by the provider), in concert with and its related news productions for the Fox network also switching to full widescreen presentation. This was promoted during that first game by the Fox broadcast team as giving a 'widescreen viewing experience' to viewers, using the usual examples of more video information on the screen to demonstrate the new presentation (such as two cheerleaders off to the side displayed in a widescreen shot, but cut out of a 4:3 shot). The graphics package is an upgraded version of the 2006 design with a 'much more colorful 3D look', implemented using a new infrastructure using products developed by, which was also rolled out to other Fox Sports networks in subsequent months. The score banner previously used was replaced by an unconventional FoxBox-styled layout, positioned in the top left corner of the screen, with team logos and scores on either side, lights indicating timeouts on the side rims, with the play clock and quarter positioned in the center. Initially, the also appeared within the center area with 10 seconds remaining, sliding the time remaining in the quarter upward.

However, the play clock indicator was soon moved to the bar sliding out of the bottom to show downage. Due to issues with some cable providers and Fox affiliates (particularly those carried by or ) in implementing the AFD #10 widescreen mode, or for other broadcasters that still broadcast with content framed for 4:3 displays instead of defaulting to 16:9 like Fox (such as CBS and NBC, along with and until they also switched to 16:9 with letterboxed SD feeds), feeds of Fox's NFL games have been offered with graphics positioned for 4:3 displays instead of 16:9, and in most cases, only one game per week was broadcast with 16:9 graphics. Small tweaks were made for the, including the timeout indicators counting upward instead of downward, and the possession indicator now appearing alongside the team that currently is in possession of the ball. Additionally, the scoreboard next to the Fox Sports bug for other ongoing NFL games was replaced by a traditional ticker; the bug was made slightly smaller and rounder as well.

Special holiday animations also appeared with the banner package; digitally animated leaves fell on top of the FoxBox on, while falling snow piles on top during the last two weeks of December in observance of the, with the timeout indicators being changed in the latter instance to resemble strings of. After two years of using the unconventional layout, for, a more traditional FoxBox was introduced; team abbreviations (in the team's primary color) are stacked on the left side of the box, with timeout lights positioned underneath each team abbreviation, and a possession indicator to the left of it. The clock/quarter indicator is on the right side. Down and distance pops out of the bottom, while the timeout/penalty/touchdown animation is the same as in the unconventional design of the previous two seasons. Also for the 2012 season, Fox began providing play-by-play commentary of all games in Spanish on its channel.

In 2013, in observance of the, Christmas lights returned to the FoxBox along the sides of the graphic, but they no longer correspond to timeouts. When a team scores, calls a timeout or gets called on a penalty, the lights change from red, green and blue to the corresponding team's color for the duration of the graphic, before returning to the normal colors. 2014–2016 [ ] For the, the graphics were changed to match those that had previously been introduced on Fox Sports's Major League Baseball and NASCAR coverage. The graphics package itself is similar to the previous look, however with a more boxy appearance, and the fonts used are rounder and have less of an athletic appearance than previous packages used by Fox. The layout of the score box is essentially a mirror image of the already-introduced MLB graphic, except that the NFL version is on the top-left of the screen, while the baseball version was originally on the bottom-left (it was moved to the bottom-right beginning in 2016).

Like the MLB graphic, the box has two components: a main box and a dynamic strip. The main box contains the team abbreviations, stacked on top of the team scores.

The possession indicator is a line above the team holding the ball; timeout indicators, which are counting downward, are stacked next to the scores. This unconventional layout of displaying the scores (also used in 2010 and 2011) is only used for NFL coverage; college football and MLB coverage use the traditional layout with the team abbreviations to the left of the scores. The dynamic strip normally shows the next down that will occur, such as '3rd Down'. It changes to show down and distance and the play clock, and turns yellow if a flag is thrown. When a score occurs, the dynamic strip disappears and the main box changes to show the logo of the team scoring, along with the type of score ('TOUCHDOWN', 'FIELD GOAL', 'SAFETY').

For a penalty, the main box shows the logo of the offending team, while the dynamic strip turns yellow and displays the type of penalty. When a timeout is called, the dynamic strip turns to the color of the team taking the timeout and displays 'Timeout', while the main box displays the team's logo over a neutral gray background. After a few seconds, the main box returns to the scores and a small gray box with the team logo appears next to the word 'Timeout' in the dynamic strip. For a review or a challenge, the dynamic strip moves from the bottom to the right side of the main box and turns red, displaying whether it is a challenge, an official review, or a scoring review. When the decision is announced, the strip expands to show the result of the review on a yellow background. After a few seconds, the strip shifts back to the bottom of the main box and if a timeout is charged on a lost challenge, the strip shows the team charged with the timeout. For regular season games only, beginning with Week 3 of 2016, the record for each team was added to the box, making the team abbreviations of each team smaller.

Fox gradually worked elements of a new square-edged graphics package with thinner fonts into secondary situations during the 2016 season. This package (in white instead of black) was used for Fox's Super Bowl LI pregame, halftime, and post game shows, but the game broadcast itself continued to use the 2014 package. However, the translucent shading around the scoreboard was removed for the Super Bowl. 2017–present [ ] Starting on August 27, 2017, after three years of using the unconventional layout from the previous graphics package, a new, traditional score bar was introduced. The score bug was moved from the top left to across the bottom of the screen and is now horizontal. Additionally, team names are displayed instead of their abbreviations and the clock is located towards the right of the bug and the down and distance is displayed on the far right.

Also, timeout indicators are shown below the team names and the possession indicator, which was originally shown below the team's score (through Week 4 of the ), is now shown above the team's score. When showing stats or player info, the score bug briefly moves to the bottom left of the screen then returns to its previous position. With this, all five of the NFL's broadcast partners (CBS, ESPN, Fox, NBC and NFL Network) now have score bars across the bottom of the screen, with Fox being the last of the five to make the switch.
