Over a week after a 'Sunday Night Football' colleague suffered a terrifying fall before a game in Pittsburgh, NBC Sports commentators Mike Tirico and Cris Collinsworth led the well-wishes to their co-worker.
In the final two minutes of the game between the Seattle Seahawks and the Washington Commanders, Tirico began to address the incident while showing various shots of camera operators throughout Northwest Stadium in Maryland.
'Our Sunday Night Football production team truly like a family,' the NBC play-by-play man said.
'We've got over 200 individuals who travel across the country from August until February, dedicated to bring you the best possible broadcast. It's a lot of time traveling away from our homes, away from our families.
'Last weekend, one of our Sunday Night Football family members, Keith Keller, was critically injured while helping to set up our show. Keith has been a member of our SNF team for over a decade.
'He's one of our key camera operators. He's provided so many great looks at the big moments and games you've enjoyed for years.

The scoreboard at Northwest Stadium in DC displayed a message of support to Keller
'Good news is that he's doing better, but he does have a long road ahead. We wish Keith, his wife, Stephanie, their family, our absolute best.
'I'm thinking about him a lot, and we'll continue to do so as we go through the year.'
The broadcast showed an image of Keller, as well as a shot of the scoreboard at Northwest Stadium which displayed a message that read, 'Get well soon, Keith'.
Collinsworth added, 'And we miss him. Yes. It was a tough week last week. So many of our crew, family, the camera crew, all those they lived together on the road, and it was still hard. God bless him.'
According to a post on Pittsburgh Public Safety's X page, Keller fell around 10pm on October 25 as Acrisure Stadium was undergoing preparations for the Green Bay Packers-Pittsburgh Steelers game.
'Rescue medics were able to reach him and lower him to safety,' read the statement. 'He was transported to the hospital in critical condition.'
WTAE.com's Lily Coleman reported Keller's injuries were primarily to his lower body. OSHA has opened an investigation into the incident.
