To watch the 2025 NFL preseason, there are several options available:
- Local TV affiliates: Most preseason games are broadcast regionally on each team's local TV channel.
- National TV: Some games are shown nationally on networks like ABC, CBS, FOX, ESPN, and NBC.
- Streaming services: Key streaming providers for preseason games include NFL Network (streams many games), Amazon Prime Video (exclusive for some games like Patriots vs Giants in Week 3), FuboTV, Sling TV, DirecTV Stream, Hulu + Live TV, and Paramount+.
- NFL+: This streaming service offers live out-of-market preseason games that are not on local TV, ideal for fans wishing to watch their team from anywhere.
- Free options: Over-the-air antennas can pick up games on local FOX, NBC, and CBS broadcasts for free.
These services may require subscriptions, but many offer free trials to test them during the preseason. For the most comprehensive access, NFL+ is a go-to choice for live out-of-market games. Devices supported for NFL+ and streaming services include mobile phones, tablets, Apple TV, Fire TV, Roku, and Xbox. In summary, watching NFL preseason games can be done via a mix of local TV channels, national broadcasts, and a variety of streaming platforms, with NFL+ providing a wide coverage option, especially for out-of-market games.
