The men’s 4x100m relay final is scheduled to transpire this afternoon. The competition will be broadcasted on NBC and Peacock at 12:45 p.m. CT. Fans can watch Kenny Bednarek and Team USA compete in this race for free online by using the free trials offered by Fubo TV and DirecTV Stream.

Team USA sent some incredible sprinters to the 2024 Olympic Games, which has led to numerous Olympic medals. However, the team might have to compete in today’s final without their anchor Noah Lyles because he tested positive for COVID-19 earlier this week.

Lyles attempted to win his second gold medal in Paris during the men’s 200m yesterday, but he was clearly struggling to maintain his pace due to the illness. Despite the sickness, he ended up securing a bronze medal in the event.

After yesterday’s race, Lyles suggested that he might not participate in today’s competition. If he opts to sit-out of today’s event, then Team USA would compete with the remaining four sprinters on the roster: Fred Kerley, Christian Coleman, Courtney Lindsey, and Bednarek.

Team USA competed with these four athletes in the first round of the relay event yesterday, and they were able to secure a first place finish in their heat. The American squad also posted the fastest time of all teams in the competition, so they are still a likely candidate for gold this afternoon.

Fans can watch the upcoming race for free online by using the free trials offered by Fubo TV and DirecTV Stream. Alternatively, Peacock will livestream today’s event.
