2023 Green Bay Packers schedule

Best TV plans for watching the Green Bay Packers

Our favorite way to watch the Green Bay Packers in 2023 is through YouTube TV. The live TV streaming service offers every channel broadcasting Packers games this season—except for the Thursday Night Football game in Week 4, which exclusively streams on Amazon Prime Video. You’ll also get NFL Network and unlimited DVR space for the optimal football viewing experience.

Despite access to every Packers channel, YouTube TV doesn’t guarantee live coverage of every game in its base plan. 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.

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

Like most NFL teams, you can watch many Packers games for free using an over-the-air (OTA) 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 if you’re not in the Midwest, the Packers are still the third most televised NFL team after the Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants.

Having an OTA 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 Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) Reception Map Tool to verify which channels are in your area. Then, visit our Best OTA Antennas page to browse recommended indoor and outdoor antennas. We like the Mohu Leaf 50 for its 60-mile range and slim design, but it’s most suitable for those in suburban areas.

What channel is Packers TV Network?

The Packers Television Network is a collection of local TV stations throughout the U.S. affiliated with the Green Bay Packers. All channels within the network show Packers preseason games, while most stations also broadcast Packers Family Night and other year-round cheesehead content.

The Packers Radio Network also exists for those who prefer listening to live games. As with TV, the team has radio affiliates in every primary market throughout Wisconsin. Additional radio affiliates are in Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota.

The radio network airs live play-by-play coverage of every Packers game with the voice talents of Wayne Larrivee and Larry McCarren. Check out the Packers Radio Network Affiliates guide for an up-to-date list of in-network radio stations and their frequency numbers.
