This week’s Monday Night Football game will be a test to see whether or not the Kansas City Chiefs can continue their winning streak. The Chiefs have won their last two matchups and head into Week 5 with a 2-2 record, but tonight they might be missing receiver Xavier Worthy, whose shoulder and ankle issues have earned him questionable status. The Chiefs face the Jacksonville Jaguars at at EverBank Stadium at 8:15 p.m. ET tonight. The Jaguars are now 3-1 under head coach Liam Coen’s leadership this season, a stark contrast to their 0-4 record at the same time last year.
You’ll have quite a few options when it comes to streaming Monday’s game: you can catch ABC and ESPN on platforms like DirecTV and Fubo, stream the game through NFL+, or you can check it out on the new ESPN unlimited app, which combines all of ESPN’s networks in one place.

Many NFL games are broadcast on local channels, so if you’re looking to catch an in-market game, it may be as simple as turning on your TV (or setting up a digital TV antenna) or finding a live TV streaming service that carries the correct RSN (Regional Sports Network). If you want to watch out-of-market games, a $7 monthly subscription to NFL+ will let you watch every out-of-market local and primetime game in the season on your phone but only a select few regular-season games on your TV. You could also spring for the uber-expensive NFL Sunday Ticket package to get every out-of-market Sunday game of the season.
When it comes to nationally broadcast games, NFL games typically air across ESPN, NBC, CBS, Fox, ABC and NFL Network. Thursday Night Football games stream exclusively on Prime Video, select football games will stream exclusively on Peacock, games on CBS will stream live on Paramount+, and Monday Night Football games will air on ESPN or ABC and stream on the newly revamped ESPN+ this season. That’s six channels and four streaming platforms to keep up with this season and that’s not counting your local RSN’s for in-market games and an NFL+ or NFL Sunday Ticket subscription for out-of-market games. Plus, Netflix is once again hosting at least two Christmas Day matches, so add that subscription into the mix. And we can’t forget about Fox One, Fox’s first streaming service, a place where you can also stream games airing on FOX (if you don’t already have access to it).
Confused? You’re not alone. Here’s a breakdown of the platforms we recommend checking out during the 2025 NFL season, so that come game time, tuning into your favorite team’s games will be as easy as simply turning on the TV.
To recap, here are all the ways you can watch NFL games in 2025.
