NFL games on TV today: Full schedule, times, channels, live streams to watch 2026 Week 1 image
Seven months after the Seahawks' Super Bowl 60 triumph, the NFL is back.
Reigning champion Seattle hosts the traditional opener against the Patriots in a non-traditional slot, with the season kicking off Wednesday as a concession to the 49ers vs. Rams game in Melbourne, Australia, on Thursday.
Those games tee up a full slate of action Sunday, highlighted by early divisional clashes in Vikings vs. Packers, Eagles vs. Commanders and Giants vs. Cowboys, with the latter getting the prime-time slot. Week 1 action closes out Monday night with another rivalry game in Chiefs vs. Broncos.
The long wait is finally over for football fans. Here's when and where to watch all the games.
