Like a long-running TV show, the Green Bay Packers are back for another season. And I, for one, am optimistic about the campaign ahead.
Quarterback Jordan Love is coming off a rock-solid 2024 season, and head coach Matt LaFleur’s offseason task of adding significant support around Love seems to be in motion. While the Packers still face a tough NFC North, it’s clear they’re serious about adding another Vince Lombardi Trophy to the Packers Hall of Fame at Lambeau Field.
Fortunately, navigating how to watch the Packers on TV hasn’t changed too much this season. Keep scrolling for a closer look at channel listings and game times. If you crave more Green and Gold coverage, I also outline which local stations make up the Packers TV Network.
What channels show Green Bay Packers games?
In 2025, you can watch the Green Bay Packers on CBS, FOX, ESPN/ABC, NBC, and Amazon Prime Video. Sunday afternoon games will air on CBS and FOX for in-market fans and stream on NFL Sunday Ticket for out-of-market viewers.
Games on CBS in your area will also stream on Paramount+, while all NBC matchups stream on Peacock. You can also watch in-market and nationally televised games on your phone or tablet with NFL+.
Pro tip: Some Packers matchups will air with Spanish-language commentary on ESPN Deportes, Fox Deportes, and UNIVERSO.
2025 Green Bay Packers TV schedule
The Packers open the 2025 season at home against long-time foes, the Detroit Lions, on September 7. Green Bay has several must-watch games on the calendar, including at least four primetime matchups. One of those is a Week 8 visit to the Pittsburgh Steelers that could feature Aaron Rodgers against the Green and Gold for the very first time.
I could go on about how exciting the Packers’ 2025 TV schedule is, but you can see for yourself in the table below. I’ll keep the game times and channel listings up to date as the season progresses.

Best TV plans for watching the Green Bay Packers
As a Wisconsinite, my favorite way to watch the Green Bay Packers in 2025 is with my trusty over-the-air (OTA) antenna. But if you’re out of range or also want ESPN and NFL Network to round out your NFL coverage, I recommend signing up for YouTube TV.
The live TV streaming service offers every channel broadcasting Packers games this season, except for the Amazon Prime Video game in Week 2. It also comes with unlimited DVR space and multiview capabilities for the most detailed game day experience.
Despite access to core Packers channels, YouTube TV doesn’t guarantee live Packers game coverage every week to all subscribers. That’s because regional blackouts may prevent Sunday afternoon games on CBS and FOX from airing in your area, especially if you live outside Wisconsin or the greater Midwest. In that case, you’ll need YouTube’s pricey NFL Sunday Ticket package for out-of-market coverage.
Pro tip: 506sports.com is a great resource for seeing which Sunday afternoon NFL games will air in your area.
Which TV providers carry the Green Bay Packers?
Any TV provider with local channels and ESPN will get you Packers coverage. Because of the NFL’s TV blackout policies, the amount of Packers games you receive depends on your location. But here’s a breakdown of popular TV providers that offer Packers channels.

How to watch the Green Bay Packers for free
†CableTV.com utilizes paid Amazon links. Amazon.com Price; $46.99 (as of 7/25/25 11:20 a.m. CT). Read full disclaimer.
Like most NFL teams, you can watch many Packers games for free using a digital antenna. But you must live near ABC, CBS, FOX, and NBC affiliate stations with no major obstructions around your house to pick up games.
Local fans near a Packers TV Network affiliate benefit the most from OTA TV. Even outside the Midwest, the Packers have the third-largest national TV reach among NFL teams after the Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants.
Having an antenna is crucial for watching football as local channels cover events like the Super Bowl, Sunday Night Football, and some Monday Night Football games.
Head to the FCC’s Reception Map Tool or Antenna Direct’s TV Transmitter Locator to verify which channels are in your area. Then, visit our Best OTA Antennas page to browse our top indoor and outdoor antenna picks. I often recommend the Mohu Leaf 50 for its 60-mile range and slim design, but it’s most suitable for those in suburban areas.
