Football fans and music lovers alike are eagerly anticipating the return of Sunday Night Football on September 8, and part of the excitement revolves around Carrie Underwood’s return to perform the show’s opening theme for the 2024-2025 NFL season.

Underwood has been the voice of Sunday Night Football for the past 12 years, after stepping into the role in 2013. Her powerful renditions of the show’s signature themes, including “Waiting All Day for Sunday Night,” “Oh, Sunday Night,” and “Game On,” have become staples in over 20 million homes each week. The country star’s influence as the face of SNF is undeniable.

Reflecting on her role, Underwood shared with Yahoo Entertainment how significant football has been in her life. “Growing up, we didn’t have cable or anything like that, so whatever was on TV was what we watched. Fortunately, that was a lot of football on Sundays,” she said.

For Underwood, her continued presence in the NFL broadcast is special, as it taps into her own family’s memories of watching football together. Fans, too, feel the connection, making her a fixture of their Sunday night rituals. “Thanks Carrie, warm us up! It’s Football Season College & NFL,” one fan commented on an NBC SNF post. Others chimed in with excitement: “Best theme song in sports,” and, “Anxiously waiting for that one year @carrieunderwood is asked to do the SB halftime show.”

Aside from her SNF duties, Underwood is having an eventful year. The “Before He Cheats” singer also announced her return to American Idol—this time as a judge. Viewers can now enjoy her performances on both Sundays and Mondays, as she continues to dominate in music and television.
