Coverage of the 2024 NFL regular season continues this weekend on FOX Sports, with FOX having the rights to a Week 3 doubleheader on Sunday, September 22 (games starting at 1:00 PM ET and 4:25 PM ET). FOX has a full seven-game schedule for your viewing enjoyment. Games in the early window include Packers at Titans (1:00 PM ET), Giants at Browns (1:00 PM ET), Eagles at Saints (1:00 PM ET) & Broncos at Buccaneers (1:00 PM ET). Games in the America's Game of the Week window include Ravens at Cowboys (4:25 PM ET), 49ers at Rams (4:25 PM ET) & Lions at Cardinals (4:25 PM ET). Let's dive deeper into the Week #3 schedule for the NFL on FOX in the following sections.

The Week #3 schedule for the NFL on FOX starts two hours before the games do, at 11:00 AM (ET) with "FOX NFL Kickoff", live from Los Angeles, California. Charissa Thompson hosts the program with Hall of Famer Charles Woodson, four-time Super Bowl champion Julian Edelman, and four-time Pro Bowler Michael Vick, and insider Peter Schrager. Colin Cowherd and Cooper Manning contribute features.

The Week #3 NFL on FOX pregame coverage continues at 12:00 PM (ET) with "FOX NFL Sunday", also originating from Los Angeles. Curt Menefee and Hall of Famer Terry Bradshaw co-host the show, with Hall of Famers Michael Strahan, Jimmy Johnson and Howie Long serving as analysts. Insider Jay Glazer rounds out the cast with news, information and late-breaking injury updates before the Sunday contests kick off.

The doubleheader begins on FOX at 1:00 PM (ET) with regional coverage of four games: Eagles at Saints, Giants at Browns, Packers at Titans and Broncos at Buccaneers. We will briefly discuss each of these four matchups over the next subsections of this article.

Following an unbelievable meltdown in the final minutes of "Monday Night Football" last week vs. the Falcons, Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles (1-1) enter hostile territory this week as the team is set to play their first road game of the 2024 season against Derek Carr and red-hot New Orleans Saints (2-0) on Sunday, September 22 at 1:00 PM (ET) on FOX. The Eagles are 7-5 (.583) over the last 12 regular season meetings against the Saints on the road. New Orleans, on the other hand, came off a dominant 44-19 win over the Cowboys last week, and now looks to become the eighth Saints franchise to begin a campaign with a 3-0 record. 🎙 Joe Davis, Greg Olsen and Pam Oliver will call the action for the Eagles-Saints on FOX.

Devin Singletary and the winless New York Giants (0-2) find themselves on the road this week, as they face Deshaun Watson and the Cleveland Browns (1-1) from Cleveland's Huntington Bank Field on Sunday, September 22 at 1:00 PM (ET) on FOX. The Giants are coming off a 21-18 loss to the Washington Commanders last week. The Browns secured their first win of 2024 last week, 18-13, vs. the Jacksonville Jaguars down in Jacksonville. Giants quarterback Daniel Jones went 16-for-28 for 178 yards and two touchdowns in the loss against the Commanders. Browns defensive end (and reigning Defensive Player of the Year) Myles Garrett recorded a strip sack versus the Jaguars last week, meaning that Garrett has now forced at least one strip sack in both of Cleveland's games this season. 🎙 Kenny Albert, Jonathan Vilma and Megan Olivi handle Sunday's Giants-Browns FOX broadcast.

The Green Bay Packers (1-1) head south this week to battle Calvin Ridley and the winless Tennessee Titans (0-2) at Nashville's Nissan Stadium on Sunday, September 22 at 1:00 PM (ET) on FOX. Last week, the Packers earned their first dub of 2024 via a 16-10 win over the Colts at Lambeau Field. Packers quarterback Malik Willis, erstwhile with the Titans, made his first Packers start filling in for regular starter Jordan Love, who missed the Colts game due to a MCL sprain that he suffered during Week 1 against the Eagles in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Packers running back Josh Jacobs totaled over 150 yards during the Week 2 Colts-Packers contest. Last week, the Titans fell short 24-17 to the New York Jets in the team's home opener. Titans quarterback Will Levis, in his 11th career start, went 19-for-28 for 192 yards, including a 40-yard dot to WR Calvin Ridley. 🎙 Sunday's Packers-Titans broadcast on FOX features Kevin Kugler (play-by-play), three-time Super Bowl champion Daryl Johnston (analyst) & Laura Okmin (reporter).

Courtland Sutton and the winless Denver Broncos (0-2) make a road trip out east to Tampa this week, as the Broncos match up with Chris Godwin, Baker Mayfield and the undefeated Tampa Bay Buccaneers (0-2) on Sunday, September 22 at 1:00 PM (ET) on FOX. Last week, the Broncos were defeated at home by the Pittsburgh Steelers, 13-6. Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton had an awful day in the receiving game, catching just one ball for 26 yards. On the flip side, the Buccaneers got revenge for last year's Divisional Round loss to the Lions, by beating them 20-16 last week in Detroit. Godwin is having a excellent start to 2024, as he is currently tied for second in the NFL for receptions (15, alongside Raiders tight end Brock Bowers and Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp and receiving yards (200, alongside Lions receiver Jameson Williams). 🎙 Play-by-play commentator Tim Brando, analyst and four-time Super Bowl champion Matt Millen and reporter Sarah Kustok are on Sunday's Broncos-Buccaneers broadcast.

The NFL on FOX Week 3 Sunday doubleheader continues at 4:25 PM (ET) with America's Game of the Week. Three games will be held during this national window for regional distribution: Ravens at Cowboys, 49ers at Rams & Lions at Cardinals. Each one of these three games will be analyzed and dissected to give you guys some important things to monitor. That will occur over the next few parts of the article or so.

Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens (0-2) search for their first win of the season this Sunday in Arlington, as they meet Micah Parsons and the Dallas Cowboys (1-1) on Sunday, September 22 at 4:25 PM (ET) on FOX. As I mentioned earlier in this press release, this is a marquee early season interconference matchup. Both teams are coming off Week 2 losses (the Ravens losing to the Raiders & Cowboys getting pummeled by the Saints), so the hunger and desire to grab a Week 3 win is through the roof. Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott has completed 64.8% of his passes so far this season, with 2 touchdown passes. The Ravens are sliding off a cliff very fast and must shake themselves out of an early season slump. 🎙 Kevin Burkhardt provides play-by-play commentary with seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady providing analysis. Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi join the broadcast with sideline reports throughout the game.

Two NFC West teams collide at SoFi Stadium for Week 3, as Fred Warner and the defending NFC champions San Francisco 49ers (1-1) face off against Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams (0-2) on Sunday, September 22 at 4:25 PM (ET) on FOX. The 49ers once again battle as a visiting team for the second straight week, following their 23-17 loss to the Vikings in Week 2. And sadly, the 49ers will enter this Week 3 contest a little shorthanded, as the team will be without star WR Deebo Samuel (calf strain) and RB Christian McCaffrey (hamstring/Achilles). The Rams, though, find themselves in a troubling position following losses to the Lions and Cardinals to begin the 2024 season. Rams QB Matthew Stafford has passed for at least 200 yards in eight straight regular season games. 🎙 Sunday's 49ers-Rams broadcast on FOX will have Adam Amin on play-by-play, Mark Sanchez as the analyst & Kristina Pink working the sidelines.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown and the Detroit Lions (1-1) take a trip to the desert this week to play rookie wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. and the Arizona Cardinals (1-1) on Sunday, September 22 at 4:25 PM (ET) on FOX. The Cardinals crushed the division foe Rams, 41-10, last week behind a perfect passer rating from Cardinals QB Kyler Murray and two touchdowns from Cardinals rookie WR Marvin Harrison Jr. Cardinals safety Budda Baker had eight tackles, while Cardinals running back James Conner ran for over 100 yards on the ground last week vs. the Rams. The Lions are reeling a little following a 20-16 loss to their Divisional Round opponent from last season, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, there were some good things to take away from Buccaneers-Lions last week - following a quiet Week 1, Amon-Ra St. Brown went OFF in this one, catching 10 balls for 110 yards, and Aidan Hutchinson getting 4.5 sacks. 🎙 The broadcast team of Chris Myers (play-by-play), Mark Schlereth (analyst) & Jennifer Hale (reporter) will call the Lions-Cardinals game on FOX.

FOX wraps up Week #3 doubleheader coverage at 7:30 PM (ET) with The OT. This program features the studio team of Curt Menefee, Terry Bradshaw, Michael Strahan, Jimmy Johnson, Howie Long & Jay Glazer.
