NFL TV Networks & Broadcast Information
NFL games are split into TV packages by day and time slot. Here is who generally carries what, followed by the channels listed for this week's games.
NFL broadcast packages
| Package | Network / service | Usual time (ET) | Distribution |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sunday afternoon (mostly AFC road teams) | CBS (streams on Paramount+) | 1:00 PM and 4:05/4:25 PM | Regional |
| Sunday afternoon (mostly NFC road teams) | FOX | 1:00 PM and 4:05/4:25 PM | Regional |

| Selected games | NFL Network | Varies | National |
| Out-of-market Sunday afternoon games | NFL Sunday Ticket | Sunday afternoons | Subscription |
The CBS/FOX split traditionally follows the road team: CBS has most games where the visiting team is from the AFC, FOX most games where it is from the NFC. The league can move ("cross-flex") some games between the two networks to balance their schedules, so the rule isn't absolute.
In recent seasons the NFL has also sold individual games to other streaming services, such as Netflix's Christmas Day games. Those appear in our listings when the data source includes them.
