Plot Synopsis

On Sundays during the National Football League (NFL) regular season, FOOTBALL NIGHT IN AMERICA presents segments from Bob Costas' exclusive interviews with the biggest names in professional football. But this Sunday night pregame show has only limited time, and the majority of Costas' interviews aren't shown. Now, COSTAS UNCUT, a series of specials on NBC Sports, airs the entire interviews with select guests. During November 2012, COSTAS UNCUT featured Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and Baltimore Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs. On Wednesday, December 26th, NBC Sports Network presented back-to-back programs at 8:30pm ET, featuring a 30-minute special, "The 40th Anniversary of the Immaculate Reception," with the Pittsburgh Steelers Franco Harris, immediately followed by a 60-minute special at 9pm, with "2012 Costas Uncut: The Best of the NFL," featuring extended interviews with New York Giants Head Coach Tom Coughlin, Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt, Hall of Fame QB and current Denver Broncos executive John Elway, New Orleans Saints safety Malcolm Jenkins, Pittsburgh Steelers Head Coach Mike Tomlin, Houston Texans running back Arian Foster and Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.
