Football is back! Before the regular season kicks off, NFL teams will hit the field for preseason games to test new plays and prepare for another exciting season.
For fans, it’s a chance to get an early look at our favorite teams. The question is, how can you watch the game? The answer depends on who you want to watch, where you live, and how the game is being broadcast.
Many preseason games are broadcast locally in the team’s local market. If the game airs on one of the local ABC, CBS, FOX or NBC affiliates, you can watch the preseason game with a Mohu or ClearStream TV antenna without paying for a monthly subscription.
However, if you want to watch a team outside your local market, you will need an expensive subscription package to access the game from streaming services like NFL+.
We’ve put together an NFL preseason schedule, including matchups, game times and where you can watch each game over-the-air or through a streaming service. All times are EST.
