(KWCH/KCTV) An equipment failure in Jacksonville caused CBS to leave the Kansas City Chiefs game for the Browns game.
A CBS Sports spokesperson released the following statement Sunday afternoon:
“Due to a power outage during the Kansas City-Jacksonville game, viewers were switched to the Tennessee – Cleveland game and then to the Buffalo – NY Jets game.
We regret that we were unable to return the audience to their scheduled game before power was restored.”
Bezu Halliwell, who works for CBS, shared a photo on Twitter saying the truck there lost power during the break and was unable to keep streaming the game.
Ok! Fried power cables means no parky the TV truck in a place with no shade in JACKSONVILLE! At least we lost power in the break. #livingthedream #EddieSizzahandz pic.twitter.com/ncz78ZRnpy
