Former Chiefs OL joins CBS Sports crew for Week 18 vs. Raiders

The oddity of the 2025 season concludes on Sunday for the Kansas City Chiefs, as missing the postseason for the first time in a decade has led to some immediate differences in their coverage.

According to CBS Sports' weekly NFL game announcer lineup, the Week 18 regular season finale of the Las Vegas Raiders against the Chiefs will be handled by the broadcast team of Chris Lewis, Kyle Long, and Tiffany Blackmon. Long, a former member of the Chiefs in 2021, recently spoke with Chiefs Wire's Ed Easton Jr. about Kansas City's disappointing 2025 season.

In a majority of Kansas City's games this season, they've drawn the broadcasting trio of Tracy Wolfson, Jim Nantz, and Tony Romo on commentary. Including the nationally televised Thanksgiving showdown with the Dallas Cowboys, at one point this season, Wolfson, Nantz, and Romo were on four consecutive Chiefs games as the network's lead crew.

The finale in Las Vegas won't have postseason interests for fans, but there will be plenty of eyes on Pro Bowl tight end Travis Kelce. Sunday's game could be the legendary tight end's final NFL game as his future remains a mystery.
