According to CBS, the taped interview will air Sunday on "Face the Nation," which will broadcast from Atlanta, Georgia before CBS' coverage there of Super Bowl LIII. Another part of the interview will air later in the day, at approximately 3:30 p.m. on the CBS Television network.
For almost two decades, presidents have often sat for interviews airing the Sunday of the Super Bowl. CBS sportscaster Jim Nantz first interviewed then-President George W. Bush, before the Super Bowl kicked off in 2004.
Former President Barack Obama appeared in pregame interviews for all eight years of his presidency. And in a first for the semi-regular Super Bowl tradition, then-First Lady Michelle Obama joined her husband for a live interview by "CBS This Morning" co-host Gayle King in 2016, before the 50th Super Bowl.
Fox News televised an interview with the president before the game in 2017, days after his inauguration. But in 2018, the president reportedly declined a pregame interview with NBC, which carried the sporting event last year.
