After the September schedules, “The Voice” will change up a bit to account for the NBA season start, Deadline reports.

The Coaches for ‘The Voice’ Season 28
Coaches this season are Michael Bublé, Reba McEntire, Niall Horan, and Snoop Dogg. Going into Season 28, both Horan and Bublé have two wins each. The season is anyone’s game, but Horan is an undeniable fan favorite.
There are two new features this season: the Carson Callback Card and the Mic Drop button. The Carson Callback Card will give power to host Carson Daly, allowing him to pick a contestant whom no one turned their chair for in the blinds. This singer will return to the stage again for another shot at their audition.
Ahead of the season, the coaches discussed the show, and Snoop praised hopefuls willing to come on the show. “They have way more heart and way more courage than I would’ve had at this point in my career. I remember when I was at the beginning of my career I was very shy,” he said, People reports. “I wouldn’t display none of the skills I had. So for them to be able to stand on this stage, to take criticism and to be critiqued, and some of them to be told no, that’s a lot of courage and a lot of strength.”
