FNIA

What football broadcast does FNIA stand for?

Football Night in America

FNIA is shorthand for the long-running NBC broadcast that showcases the NFL's weekly Sunday Night Football (SNF) matchup. The term popped up not long after the show debuted in 2006, when fans and sports media needed a quick way to refer to the game, the broadcast team, and the primetime hype surrounding it.

Since the early 2010s, "FNIA" has become a staple among NFL fans and fantasy football players. People typically use FNIA online, in social media posts, group chats, and game day memes. For example, NFL fans live-tweeting Sunday night chaos between two high-profile teams may cause FNIA to trend on X (formerly Twitter).
