NBC's TV coverage (8:23 p.m.-11:31 p.m. ET) averaged approximately 20.2 million viewers, with a national TV household rating of 10.8/26 - up 8% from last year (10.0/22).

The Average Minute Audience (AMA) for last night's live stream via Peacock, NBC Sports Digital platforms, NFL Digital platforms, Packers and 49ers mobile properties, and Yahoo Sports mobile properties was approximately 910,000 viewers - up 52% from last year's game (600,000).

Viewership figures are based upon preliminary data from Nielsen and Adobe Analytics. Official national data for NBC will be available on Tuesday.

This Sunday on NBC SNF (8:20 p.m. ET on NBC, Peacock & Universo), Tom Brady, who won six Super Bowls with the New England Patriots before leading the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to the title last season, returns to Gillette Stadium to face his former team for the first time.
