FAQ
What channel is the Patriots game on this week?
The next New England Patriots game is at home against the New York Jets on Sun, Oct 18 at 1:00 PM EDT. It airs on CBS, a regional Sunday-afternoon broadcast shown in the teams’ markets and other areas the network picks.
How can I stream New England Patriots games without cable?
This season, stream CBS games on Paramount+, FOX games on Fox One, NBC games on Peacock, and ESPN and ABC 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 Patriots games are on national TV in 2026?
6 of the 17 games listed are in national windows (prime time, Thursday, Monday, holidays or international games) and 9 are Sunday-afternoon CBS or FOX games shown regionally. The network for the other 2 games has not been set yet.
Can I watch Patriots games outside New England?
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 Patriots bye week in 2026?
The New England Patriots are off in Week 11.
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.
