Question 1

What channel is the Lions game on today?

Accepted Answer

Depends on the week. Most Lions Sunday afternoon games land on FOX, which holds the NFC package, at 1:00 p.m. ET or 4:05/4:25. Primetime is NBC on Sunday, ESPN on Monday (10 of the 17 Monday games also air on ABC), Prime Video on Thursday. Fubo carries FOX, CBS, NBC, ABC, ESPN and NFL Network in most markets. The schedule above has this week's channel.

Question 2

What time is the Lions game today?

Accepted Answer

Depends which window they're in. Sunday afternoons start at 1:00 p.m. ET or 4:05/4:25. Sunday Night Football is 8:20. Monday and Thursday nights are 8:15. International Series games from London, Paris, Madrid and Munich kick at 9:30 a.m. ET. Check the schedule above for this week.

Question 3

How can I watch Lions games without cable?

Accepted Answer

Stream your local FOX and CBS instead. Fubo carries FOX, CBS, NBC, ABC, ESPN and NFL Network in most markets, no box and no annual contract, which covers the Sunday afternoon Lions games in the Detroit market plus their games on NBC, ABC and ESPN. Two gaps: Thursday Night Football on Prime Video, and the Netflix games. Neither is part of a Fubo plan.

Question 4

Can I watch Lions games on Fubo?

Accepted Answer

Yes, most of them. Fubo has FOX, CBS, NBC, ABC, ESPN and NFL Network, though which local stations you get depends on your ZIP. Sunday afternoon Lions games come through your local FOX or CBS station, and their NBC, ABC and ESPN games are covered too. Thursday Night Football and the Netflix games aren't.

Question 5

What channel do most Lions games air on in 2026?

Accepted Answer

FOX, most weeks. They're an NFC North team, alongside Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings, and FOX holds the NFC Sunday afternoon package. It isn't a hard rule though. The league sets each Sunday game's network when it builds the schedule, and some Lions games land on CBS instead. Fubo has both in most markets, so check the week you want.

Question 6

How can I watch Lions games if I live outside Michigan?

Accepted Answer

Your local CBS and FOX only carry what's assigned to your market. You won't get every Sunday afternoon game from one service. Fubo carries ESPN nationwide, plus your local NBC and ABC where they're available in your area, plus NFL Network. RedZone whips around the league on Sunday afternoons and shows every Lions touchdown, never a full game. Sports Plus with NFL RedZone ($10.99/mo) and More Sports with NFL RedZone ($9.99/mo) both include it.

Question 7

Why isn't the Lions game on my local channel?

Accepted Answer

Check the other network first. CBS and FOX games get reassigned, so your game may be on CBS. If both are showing something else, you're outside the Detroit market. Each market gets one or two Sunday afternoon games per network, and the local station takes the one with the most regional pull. This isn't a blackout. The NFL suspended that rule back in 2015, so in-market Lions games have aired locally every season since.

Question 8

Are Lions games on NFL Network or NFL RedZone?

Accepted Answer

NFL Network picks up some Lions preseason games and a handful of national games each year, and it comes with Fubo's sports plans. RedZone is a different thing. RedZone whips around the league on Sunday afternoons and shows every Lions touchdown, but never a full game. Sports Plus with NFL RedZone ($10.99/mo) and More Sports with NFL RedZone ($9.99/mo) both include it.

Question 9

What Lions games are in primetime in 2026?

Accepted Answer

Their marquee national games in 2026: the Thanksgiving Day game, Thursday, Nov. 26 vs. Chicago at 1:00 p.m. ET on CBS. The Lions have other Sunday, Monday or Thursday night games on the schedule too, so treat the schedule above as the real list. Assignments move mid-season anyway. The NFL can flex Sunday nights from Week 5, Mondays from Week 12 and Thursdays from Week 13, with as little as six days' notice for Sunday nights late in the year. Week 18 isn't set until Week 17 finishes.

Question 10

Do the Lions play any international games in 2026?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The Lions play one international game in 2026: Week 10, Sunday, Nov. 15 vs. New England from Munich, Germany, at 9:30 a.m. ET on FOX. These kick off well outside the usual windows, so set an alarm. It's on a network Fubo carries in most markets.

Question 11

How many Lions games can I watch on Fubo in 2026?

Accepted Answer

Most of them. The Lions play in the NFC North so FOX carries most of their Sunday afternoon games. Fubo streams FOX in most markets. You also get NBC for Sunday Night Football, and ABC/ESPN for Monday Night Football when the Lions are in those windows. Their Thanksgiving game (Nov. 26 vs. Chicago) is on CBS and on Fubo. The gap is Thursday nights on Prime Video throughout the season. Check the schedule above for the channel on each week.

Question 12

Can I watch Lions games with an antenna or on regular TV?

Accepted Answer

For a lot of them, yes. In the Detroit market an antenna pulls in your local FOX, CBS, NBC and ABC free over the air, which covers Sunday afternoon Lions games, Sunday Night Football and the Monday games that simulcast on ABC. It won't get Thursday Night Football, NFL Network, RedZone, the ESPN-only Monday games, or anything on Netflix or Peacock.
