Both the Cleveland Browns and the Philadelphia Eagles are coming off impressive first preseason games that showed incredible promise for the squads. While the Eagles saw backup quarterback Tanner McKee put together a remarkable performance with over 250 yards and two touchdowns through the air, the Browns received visual evidence of the potential Shedeur Sanders has on the football field.
Now, up 1-0, both teams will look to continue their momentum as the regular season draws closer. This time without Sanders, though, it is likely that Cleveland gets a taste of what their other rookie selection, Dillon Gabriel, looks like on the gridiron. Here’s everything you need to know about the broadcast coverage when the two teams square off against each other.

Who Are the Game Announcers for the Cleveland Browns vs. Philadelphia Eagles?
The evergreen trio of Andrew Siciliano, Nathan Zegura, and Je’Rod Cherry will be taking on the play-by-play, color analyst, and sideline reporter duties, respectively, for the game between two teams on opposite ends of the spectrum.
While the Browns are unsure about what their quarterback situation is going to look like in the coming years, Philadelphia is coming off a dominant Super Bowl 59 victory, where Jalen Hurts won Super Bowl MVP honors.

Siciliano is one of the most respected voices in the sport, and he has well over two decades of experience to his credit. The host of NFL Sunday Ticket Red Zone on DirecTV, he spent 18 years in the role, while also working as a host on the NFL Network.
Zegura, on the other hand, had a vastly different trajectory. Ditching the world of political science, he became one of the most viable names in fantasy football management. Rising to fame in quick time, he now hosts the Cleveland Browns Daily podcast.
Cherry, for any old school New England Patriots fans, is a name you might be familiar with. A second-round draft pick in the 1996 NFL Draft, the safety spent the first four years of his career with the New Orleans Saints. A brief stint with the Philadelphia Eagles followed in 2000, before he ended up on the Patriots roster in 2001.
A member of the first part of their dynasty, he was on the roster for all three of their Super Bowl championships in the 2000s. Post retirement, he switched to an analyst role. In 2009, he became a talk show host for WKNR AM 850 in Cleveland. Since then, he’s continued rising through the ranks.
In 2022, he was first elevated to the main broadcast team, primarily as a sideline analyst and reporter.
