- Most preseason games are broadcast locally on each NFL team's designated TV affiliate (FOX, NBC, CBS) for in-market viewers.
- Five select preseason games are nationally televised on major networks including FOX, ESPN, CBS, NBC, and Amazon Prime Video (for example, the Week 3 game between the New England Patriots and New York Giants is exclusive to Prime Video).
- Many games are also available on the NFL Network.
- For out-of-market viewers or those without local access, NFL+ streams every non-national preseason game live, accessible on mobile devices and connected TVs.
- Streaming services such as FuboTV, Sling TV, DirecTV Stream, Hulu + Live TV, and YouTube TV offer packages that include the relevant channels to watch preseason games. Many offer free trials to test the service.
- An over-the-air antenna can be used to watch games for free if the local channels carrying the NFL games can be received.
- NFL+ Premium offers additional features including NFL RedZone and game replays on demand.
In summary, fans can watch 2025 NFL preseason games via local TV affiliates, national broadcasts on major networks, streaming services that carry sports channels, the NFL Network, Amazon Prime Video, and NFL+ for out-of-market streaming without cable.
