FAQ
What channel is the Texans game on this week?
The next Houston Texans game is against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sun, Oct 18 at 8:30 AM CDT. It airs on NFL Network.
How can I stream Houston Texans games without cable?
This season, stream CBS games on Paramount+, FOX games on Fox One, NFL Network games on NFL+ / live TV streaming services, NBC games on Peacock, and ESPN games on the ESPN app. CBS, FOX, NBC and ABC are also free over the air with an antenna, and NFL+ streams live local and prime-time games on phones and tablets.
How many Texans games are on national TV in 2026?
5 of the 17 games listed are in national windows (prime time, Thursday, Monday, holidays or international games) and 11 are Sunday-afternoon CBS or FOX games shown regionally. The network for the other game has not been set yet.
Can I watch Texans games outside Houston?
National games air everywhere on their network. Sunday-afternoon CBS and FOX games only reach the areas the network picks, so out-of-market fans need NFL Sunday Ticket (YouTube TV or YouTube Primetime Channels) to see every one.
When is the Texans bye week in 2026?
The Houston Texans are off in Week 8.
What does "TV TBA" mean?
The NFL leaves some late-season games unscheduled (flex games) and sets their day, kickoff time and network during the season. This page refreshes automatically several times a day and shows them as soon as they are set.
