Sunday Night Football Wishes Carrie Underwood Happy Birthday While Fans Are Left Wondering When Her Theme Song Will Return
The official Twitter/X account for Sunday Night Football also extended birthday greetings to Carrie Underwood featuring a behind-the-scenes clip, sending fans into a frenzy.
“Happy B-day [Carrie Underwood],” one user wrote. “I hope you will have her back for SNF this year.” Another commented, “I hope you have her back for next season. Best opener you’ve had!” while yet another fan wrote in early March, “What I would do for Carrie Underwood to be on my TV screen singing about Sunday Night Football right now.”
Underwood has been performing the Sunday Night Football opening theme for 11 straight years. She was suspiciously missing from the Playoff games before the Super Bowl, and fans are itching to see her back on their televisions. Will she return for the 2024 season? It’s currently unclear, but fans will definitely let the NFL know how they feel if she doesn’t come back.
