Though the participants for Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans won't be decided until Sunday, the officials were announced by the NFL on Tuesday, Grant Gordon of NFL.com reports.

Ron Torbert will be the referee, taking on his second Super Bowl assignment.

Torbert previously worked Super Bowl LVI, which saw the Los Angeles Rams defeat the Cincinnati Bengals, 23-20.

Side judge Boris Cheek will officiate his fourth Super Bowl, having previously worked Super Bowl XLII, Super Bowl 50 and Super Bowl LIV.

Cheek and Torbert are the only members of the crew with previous Super Bowl officiating experience.

Umpire Mike Morton played seven NFL seasons with the Oakland Raiders, St. Louis Rams, Green Bay Packers and Indianapolis Colts. Morton, an outside linebacker, won a Super Bowl ring with the Rams in the 1999 season, registering a tackle in the team's win over the Tennessee Titans.

Filling out the Super Bowl LIX officiating crew will be down judge Max Causey, line judge Mark Stewart, field judge Mearl Robinson, back judge Jonah Monroe and replay official Kevin Brown.
