How to watch all NFL preseason games:
Many preseason NFL games are broadcast on local stations, so if you’re looking to catch a game on the market, all you need to do is turn on your TV (or set up a digital TV antenna). If you want to watch out-of-market games, a $7 monthly subscription to NFL+ gives you access to every out-of-market game in the season (and pre-season). There will also be a few national NFL preseason games airing on NBC, ESPN, Fox, and CBS (and one streaming on Amazon Prime Video) in the coming weeks. Here’s how to watch every NFL preseason game in 2023.

Fubo TV gives you access to ESPN, NFL Network, Fox, ABC, CBS and over 100 live channels. At $75 a month, the live TV streaming service is definitely the most expensive option on this list, but it offers almost every channel you need to watch the NFL preseason and regular season while still giving you big savings compared to with a traditional cable package. Fubo subscribers also get 1,000 hours of cloud DVR storage. The platform offers a 7-day free trial.

Channel Master
Wait, a flat TV antenna? Shouldn’t these things have long, telescoping metal rods (aka bunny ears)? No, this new design (which you will see on countless other brands) works just as well and is not intended to be placed on top of your TV. Instead, mount it on a wall or window using the included adhesive strips, with the black or white side facing inward to better match your decor.
The aptly named Flatenna really is as flat as a piece of paper. You simply screw one end of the 3-meter cord into the bottom and the other end into your TV’s coax input. (Yes, that means an ugly cord running down your wall; consider a conduit like this to hide it.)
Channel Master promises a range of up to 35 miles, but of course that depends on several factors. As mentioned above, optimal placement – as high and free as possible – makes all the difference.
The big news here is the price: At just $29, the Flatenna is pretty affordable and a good place to start your aerial journey — assuming you’re okay with a black or white rectangle taped to your wall or window.
