Guide updated · Independent guide · How we make these

CBS, FOX, and NBC carry a large share of NFL games. All three are broadcast networks, so you have more ways to watch them than a cable channel.

CBS and FOX: Sunday afternoon

CBS and FOX split the Sunday afternoon slots. Which game your local station shows depends on your market. Game pages here show the network listed for the game; the exact channel number depends on your city.

NBC: Sunday night

NBC carries the Sunday night game, and many of those games also stream on Peacock.
