Al Michaels made it sound that Super Bowl 2022 could be his last telecast with longtime partner Chris Collinsworth.
Michaels, whose contract with NBC expires at the end of the season, introduced Collinsworth for "one last time" ahead of Sunday's championship game between the Rams and Bengals.
Michaels said, "The Bengals ... get to the Super Bowl for the first time since 1988 when this guy - slipped here one last time - played in that game by Chris Collinsworth."

The Post's Andrew Marchand has reported that Michaels, 77, has been targeted by Amazon for streaming coverage starting in 2022, and could end up on ESPN as well.
When asked about a possible retirement last week, Michaels told reporters he's "not ready for any rocking chairs or golf."
Michaels tied Pat Summerall for the 11th time in a Super Bowl play-by-play call on Sunday.
