In the late 4:05 PM ET window, tune in for the 49ers at Seahawks and the Titans at the Broncos.

Be sure to check your local listings or refer to this article to find out which game will be aired in your area this Sunday on Fox.

Pregame coverage begins at 11:00 AM ET on Fox with the season premiere of "Fox NFL Kickoff". Veteran host Charissa Thompson anchors the one-hour program from Los Angeles, joined by Hall of Famer Charles Woodson and three-time Super Bowl champion Julian Edelman. Additionally, contributors Colin Cowherd and Cooper Manning will provide features for the program. "Fox NFL Kickoff" offers a preview of the day's NFL action, including interviews with NFL newsmakers, reports from NFL game venues, breaking news, and updates.

Then, stay tuned for the 32nd season premiere of "Fox NFL Sunday" — America's most-watched pregame program since the series' 1994 debut — at 12:00 PM ET on Fox. Once again, "Fox NFL Sunday" is led by co-hosts Curt Menefee and four-time Super Bowl champion Terry Bradshaw. Joining them at the desk are Pro Football Hall of Fame analysts Howie Long and Michael Strahan. Four-time Super Bowl champion Rob Gronkowski will transition to a full-time position on the show, replacing the retiring Jimmy Johnson. Insider Jay Glazer is back to provide "insider" information for the 19th consecutive season. The iconic and beloved pregame show, which began alongside Fox's NFL coverage in 1994, prepares viewers for Sunday NFL games with news, highlights, predictions, and feature interviews.

Malik Nabers and the New York Giants duel with 2024 Offensive Rookie of the Year Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders in this 2025 season opener featuring NFC East clubs on Sunday, September 7 at 1:00 PM ET on Fox. Last season, the Giants finished with a poor 3-14 record (which was tied with the Browns & Titans for the worst record in the league). A season ago, Washington had a Cinderella season, going 12-5 and advancing all the way to the NFC Championship Game, before losing to the eventual Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles. Giants WR Malik Nabers had a solid rookie season for New York in 2024, hauling in 109 passes for 1,204 yards and collecting seven touchdowns. Commanders QB Jayden Daniels threw for 25 touchdowns against nine interceptions in 2024, winning Offensive Rookie of the Year and leading Washington to its first NFC Championship Game appearance since the 1991 season. 🎤 Sunday's Giants at Commanders game on Fox features the lead broadcast team of Kevin Burkhardt (play-by-play), seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady (analyst), Erin Andrews (reporter), & Tom Rinaldi (reporter).

Lavonte David and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are set to kick off the 2025 season with an NFC South matchup against Bijan Robinson and the Atlanta Falcons. This game will take place on Sunday, September 7, at 1:00 PM Eastern Time and will be broadcast on Fox. Last year, Tampa Bay won its fourth straight NFC South title with a 10-7 record. Tampa Bay would lose to Washington in the Wild Card Round. In 2024, the Falcons finished the season with an 8-9 record, which saw the team on the outside looking in as far as the NFC playoff picture was concerned. Buccaneers WR Mike Evans is tied with Pro Football Hall of Famer Jerry Rice for most consecutive 1,000-yard seasons in NFL history with 11. If Evans compiles at least 1,000 yards this season, he will have the record for most consecutive 1,000-yard seasons in NFL history. In 3 career starts, Falcons QB Michael Penix Jr. has 4 TDs (3 pass, 1 rush). 🎤 Play-by-play announcer Kenny Albert, who is starting his 32nd season covering NFL on Fox games (and is the only remaining pxp person from the inaugural NFL on Fox season in 1994), works alongside analyst and Super Bowl champion Jonathan Vilma for the sixth straight season. Megan Olivi is now in her second full season as an NFL sideline reporter.

Tee Higgins and the Cincinnati Bengals start their season with the "Battle of Ohio" vs. 2023 NFL Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett and the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, September 7 at 1:00 PM ET on Fox. Despite a five-game winning streak to end last season, the Bengals just missed the postseason with a 9-8 record. Cincinnati has not made the postseason since the 2022 season. The Browns look to improve following a forgettable 3-14 season in 2024. The Bengals are once again led by two-time QB Joe Burrow. In 2024, Burrow set single-season Bengals records in completions (460), passing yards (4,918), and touchdown passes (43). Browns TE David Njoku led the team with five receiving touchdowns last season. 🎤 Kevin Kugler (play-by-play) is paired alongside analyst and three-time Super Bowl champion Daryl "Moose" Johnston and reporter Allison Williams, making her NFL sideline reporter debut (replacing Laura Okmin, who left Fox following the 2024 season).

Jaycee Horn and the Carolina Panthers travel to Jacksonville to get the 2025 season underway against 2025 No. 2 overall draft pick Travis Hunter (expected to make his NFL debut) and the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, September 7, at 1:00 PM ET on Fox. The Panthers are coming off a rough 2024, going 5-12 and missing the postseason. The Jaguars want to move on from their disappointing 2024 season, as the team finished with a 4-13 record. After a career season in 2024, the Panthers rewarded CB Jaycee Horn with a 4-year, $100 million deal, which made him the highest-paid defensive back in the NFL at the time. Jaguars DE Josh Hines-Allen, who starts his fifth season as a team captain, is just 2.5 sacks away from becoming the new all-time sacks leader in Jaguars history. Hines-Allen has 53 sacks as the 2025 season opens up. 🎤 Play-by-play announcer Chris Myers, game analyst and three-time Super Bowl champion Mark Schlereth, and veteran reporter Jen Hale will call the Panthers vs. Jaguars game for Fox on Sunday.

Christian McCaffrey and the San Francisco 49ers compete in an NFC West opening week game against Julian Love and the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday, September 7, at 4:05 PM ET on Fox. Following a Super Bowl loss to the Chiefs in 2023, San Francisco crumbled in 2024, going 6-11 and finishing well short of expectations. Meanwhile, the Seahawks played well in 2024, going 10-7, but didn't make the postseason due to losing the NFC West tiebreaker to the Rams. Since entering the NFL in 2018, 49ers LB Fred Warner has racked up 10 sacks, 10 INT's and 15 FF's, making him one of two players to put up 10 or more sacks, 10 or more interceptions, and 15 or more forced fumbles during this time period (LB Shaquille Leonard [formerly went by Darius as his first name] - 16.0 sacks, 12 INT's, 17 FFs). Seahawks DE Leonard Williams (11 sacks last year) became the first Seahawks player with double-digit sacks since Frank Clark and Jarren Reed in 2018. 🎤 Multi-sport play-by-play commentator Joe Davis teams up with analyst and three-time Pro Bowl tight end Greg Olsen in the booth, with veteran reporter Pam Oliver roaming the sidelines.

Amani Hooker and the Tennessee Titans kick off their regular season against Courtland Sutton and the Denver Broncos on Sunday, September 7, at 4:05 PM ET on Fox. The Titans had an embarrassing campaign in 2024, going 3-14. Meanwhile, the Broncos surprised plenty of football experts last season, finishing with a 10-7 record and making the playoffs for the first time since 2015. The Broncos were ousted by the Bills in the Wild Card Game. Titans QB Cam Ward (rookie) became the first No. 1 overall pick by the Titans/Oilers franchise since legendary RB Earl Campbell was drafted No. 1 overall pick by the then-Houston Oilers in 1978. Broncos QB Bo Nix begins his second campaign as the Broncos' QB1. Last year, Nix played in all 17 regular-season games for the Broncos. Nix passed for 3,775 yards and 29 touchdowns with 12 interceptions. ðŸŽ™ The game, which is slated for a 4:05 PM ET start on Fox, has Adam Amin (play-by-play), former NFL quarterback Mark Sanchez (analyst), & Kristina Pink (reporter) on the call.

Yessir! Football Sundays are back! With that in mind, the NFL on CBS is set to activate its 66th season of providing television coverage for the NFL, beginning this Sunday, September 7. In the first week, CBS will kick off the season with a doubleheader that promises to captivate fans and keep them engaged in front of their televisions throughout the entire afternoon. Plus, "The NFL Today" hits the road to launch the new NFL season, as the legendary pregame show will be broadcasting live from Green Bay ahead of the huge Lions vs. Packers opening week game (12:00 PM ET).

CBS has six games on its opening week docket. To start the doubleheader at 1:00 PM ET, stations will have the option to pick one of these four games — Steelers at Jets, Dolphins at Colts, Raiders at Patriots, & Cardinals at Saints. Later, in the national 4:25 PM ET window, most of the country will be receiving the Lions at Packers game. Select audiences will see C.J. Stroud and the Houston Texans visit Davante Adams and the Los Angeles Rams in the season opener.

Be sure to check your local listings or refer to this article to find out which doubleheader games will be aired in your area this Sunday on CBS.

Before the games kick off, CBS will air a one-hour pregame show called "The NFL Today". The iconic pregame show has been a Sunday staple for 50 years. This week, "The NFL Today" hits the road to preview one of the marquee Week 1 matchups. The show is heading to Green Bay, Wisconsin, ahead of the Lions vs. Packers matchup (4:25 PM ET). Starting at 12:00 PM ET, "The NFL Today" gives viewers a preview of the upcoming action, feature stories with notable newsmakers, and a chance to hear last-minute injury updates. Veteran studio host James Brown hosts the program live from Green Bay, alongside 11-year NFL veteran Nate Burleson, 2016 NFL MVP Matt Ryan, and Hall of Fame coach Bill Cowher. Jonathan Jones rounds out the team as the lead NFL insider.

New Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers goes up against a familiar opponent as the Pittsburgh Steelers play their first 2025 regular season game against Jets QB Justin Fields and the New York Jets on Sunday, September 7 at 1:00 PM ET on CBS. The Steelers finished last season with a 10-7 record, obtaining a Wild Card spot in the AFC. The Steelers eventually lost to the Ravens in the Wild Card Game. The Jets, meanwhile, try to bounce back following a dismal 5-12 campaign in 2024. The Jets look to make the playoffs for the first time since 2010. Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers spent 2023 & 2024 in New York, posting a 6-12 record. Additionally, Rodgers tore his Achilles tendon in the opening game of the 2023 season. Jets QB Justin Fields is expected to make his Jets starting QB debut in this game. Last year, Fields went 4-2 as the starting quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers before being replaced by Russell Wilson. 🎤 Play-by-play commentator Ian Eagle, analyst and three-time Defensive Player of the Year J.J. Watt, and sideline reporter Evan Washburn provide commentary.

Minkah Fitzpatrick and the Miami Dolphins begin the regular season against Kenny Moore II and the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday, September 7, at 1:00 PM ET on CBS. The Dolphins are coming off a subpar 8-9 season in 2024. The Colts also finished 8-9 during the 2024 campaign. Both teams would miss the playoffs, meaning that both sides start their quest to return to the playoffs in 2025. Dolphins S Minkah Fitzpatrick returns to his original team, the one that drafted him, following more than 5 seasons in Pittsburgh. Sunday will see veteran QB Daniel Jones receive his first starting nod as the Colts' QB1. Jones has previously played for the Giants & Vikings. 🎙 Dolphins-Colts Sunday on CBS will have commentary from Andrew Catalon (play-by-play), Charles Davis (analyst), Super Bowl champion Jason McCourty (analyst), & AJ Ross (reporter).

Jeremy Chinn and the Las Vegas Raiders travel east for this season opener against Stefon Diggs and the New England Patriots on Sunday, September 7, at 1:00 PM ET on CBS. Unfortunately, both teams missed the 2024 playoffs with bad 4-13 records. With that in mind, the Raiders & Patriots are certainly ready to write new chapters in 2025. Former Patriots linebacker and three-time Super Bowl champion Mike Vrabel is set to make his debut as the Patriots' head coach this Sunday when New England hosts Las Vegas at Gillette Stadium. Speaking of debuts, Super Bowl champion Pete Carroll returns to the NFL sidelines following a one-year absence to take over the Raiders head coaching job, following the dismissal of former head coach Antonio Pierce last season. 🎤 Sunday's Raiders-Patriots broadcast on CBS features play-by-play announcer Spero Dedes, analyst and former NFL safety Adam Archuleta, and sideline reporter Aditi Kinkhabwala.

Cameron Jordan and the New Orleans Saints host Kyler Murray and the visiting Arizona Cardinals in the opener for both squads on Sunday, September 7, at 1:00 PM ET on CBS. Last year, both Arizona and New Orleans missed out on the postseason. The Cardinals posted a disappointing 8-9 record while the Saints finished with a dreadful 5-12 mark. The Cardinals are making their first visit to New Orleans since 2019 (which was before the pandemic even happened). Arizona hopes to once again have a good offense, with QB Kyler Murray, WR Marvin Harrison Jr., RB James Conner, and more pulling the trigger. Kellen Moore begins his time as the Saints head coach following a year as the Philadelphia Eagles defensive coordinator, helping them win Super Bowl LIX. Saints DE Cameron Jordan begins his 15th year with the Saints. 🎤 Play-by-play announcer Tom McCarthy, analyst and two-time Super Bowl champion Logan Ryan, analyst and former NFL offensive lineman Ross Tucker, and sideline reporter Tiffany Blackmon have the call for Sunday's Cardinals at Saints game on CBS.

Jahmyr Gibbs and the Detroit Lions start their mission of a third consecutive NFC North championship with a Week 1 showdown against Keisean Nixon and the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, September 7, at 4:25 PM ET on CBS. The Lions captured the NFC North title in 2024 with an impressive 15-2 record. However, Detroit was SHOCKED by the Commanders in the divisional round of the playoffs. In the 2024 season, the Packers finished with a record of 11 wins and 6 losses, which secured them a Wild Card spot in the playoffs. However, their journey came to an end when they were defeated by the Philadelphia Eagles in the Wild Card Round. The Lions posted back-to-back seasons with at least 10 wins for the first time in their franchise history, and set a new franchise record with 15 regular-season wins in 2024. The Packers recently pulled off a blockbuster trade to acquire four-time Pro Bowl defensive lineman Micah Parsons from the Dallas Cowboys. Parsons is expected to make his Packers debut during this matchup. 🎤 Play-by-play announcer Jim Nantz, analyst and former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, and field reporter Tracy Wolfson start their ninth season as the lead NFL on CBS broadcast team.

C.J. Stroud leads the visiting Houston Texans into this interconference game vs. Quentin Lake and the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, September 7, at 4:25 PM ET on CBS. The Texans were the top dawgs in the AFC South in 2024, finishing 10-7. Houston fell to the three-time defending AFC champion Kansas City Chiefs in the Divisional Round. The Rams, merely off tiebreakers, finished above the Seahawks to take the NFC West division in 2024 with a 10-7 record. Los Angeles defeated Minnesota in the Wild Card Game before losing to the Super Bowl champion Eagles in the Divisional Round. Texans QB C.J. Stroud is set to play near his hometown of Rancho Cucamonga, California, for the first time in his professional career. Rams WR Davante Adams makes his Rams debut after splitting last season with the Raiders & Jets. ðŸŽ¤ In the booth, established play-by-play man Kevin Harlan and analyst and former NFL quarterback Trent Green call the action, with reporter Melanie Collins handling the sidelines.

MLB on Fox: On Deck | "Baseball Night in America" heads to the Lone Star State for a in-state rivalry that has massive playoff implications as Carlos Correa and the Houston Astros visit Ezequiel Durán and the Texas Rangers (or Twins vs. Royals, Giants vs. Cardinals) | Saturday, September 6 at 7:00 PM (ET) on Fox

| ■    Tuesday, September 2, 2025

This week's "MLB on Fox: On Deck" highlights include:
  • Fox starts their September MLB regular season coverage with "Baseball Night in America" on Saturday, September 6, with regional coverage of the following games beginning at 7:00 PM ET — Astros at Rangers, Giants at Cardinals, & Twins at Royals.
  • "Lone Star Series" between Astros and Rangers is highlighted on this week's "Baseball Night in America".
  • Giants battle Cardinals as both clubs fight to stay in Wild Card contention.
  • Royals host Twins in an AL Central matchup; Kansas City resumes its pursuit of the final AL Wild Card spot.

The 30th season of the MLB on Fox continues Saturday, September 6, with another edition of "Baseball Night of America" at 7:00 PM ET. With less than one month left in the regular season, every game is pivotal for contenders across the American and National Leagues. You can see some of these teams as part of Fox's Saturday slate. Viewers will watch one of three games on Fox this Saturday — Astros vs. Rangers, Giants vs. Cardinals, or Twins vs. Royals. Check your local listings or refer to this article to find out which game will be broadcast in your area.

Jose Altuve and the Houston Astros resume their chase for a fifth consecutive American League West title against Wyatt Langford and the Texas Rangers on Saturday, September 6, at 7:00 PM ET on Fox. This is the third time that Houston & Texas are pitted against each other. The Rangers hold a slim 4-3 series lead while outscoring the Astros 28-20. Two years removed from a classic seven-game ALCS between the clubs, can both Texas teams make the postseason in 2025? There is a realistic chance of that being the case. This series is vital for both teams, as the Astros and Rangers must prove they can close the deal and earn a spot in the 2025 MLB Postseason. Houston looks to fend off Julio Rodríguez and the Seattle Mariners in the American League West race. Texas, on the other hand, is just one game behind Seattle for the final spot in the playoffs. A series win for the Rangers (along with some help from the Braves) could significantly alter the AL Wild Card situation. Pretty remarkable that 35-year-old Jose Altuve is still doing it. The Astros have been blessed to have this man for a decade and a half. Obviously, Altuve is a future first-ballot Hall of Famer. Jose leads the team in home runs (24) and hits (141). 🎤 Play-by-play commentator Wayne Randazzo teams up with analyst and Hall of Famer John Smoltz and reporter Ken Rosenthal for Astros vs. Rangers.

Rafael Devers and the San Francisco Giants travel to St. Louis for a National League contest against Masyn Winn and the St. Louis Cardinals [with both teams fighting to keep hope alive for a playoff spot] on Saturday, September 6 at 7:00 PM ET on Fox. Yes, this is the first meeting between these teams, and the regular season concludes soon. Last year, the Cardinals dominated the season series vs. the Giants, taking five of the six games. St. Louis outscored San Francisco 37-22 across the six matchups. As you guys know, time is running out for San Francisco and St. Louis to make a run towards a postseason berth. Both teams are chasing the Cincinnati Reds while also looking up at the New York Mets, the current holder of the final Wild Card spot in the National League. Things become more difficult with a series defeat here. Giants shortstop Willy Adames is coming off a prolific month of August, blasting nine of his 26 home runs (which leads the team) during that month. 🎤 Play-by-play commentator Alex Faust and analyst Eric Karros provide commentary for Giants vs. Cardinals.

A couple of American League Central teams get together when Byron Buxton and the Minnesota Twins play Bobby Witt Jr. and the Kansas City Royals, going after the final Wild Card spot in the American League, on Saturday, September 6, at 7:00 PM ET on Fox. The Twins and Royals wrap up their regular season series with this three-game series from Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City. Things look bleak for Minnesota, as they are fading from the playoff picture. Barring a miracle, this Twins ball club will be missing the postseason for the second consecutive season. Meanwhile, things are more optimistic and upbeat for Kansas City, as the team tries to return to the postseason for the second straight year, following their surprising run to the playoffs last year (after a nine-year absence). Kansas City trails Seattle by two and a half games for the last berth in the American League postseason. However, the Royals and Mariners are scheduled to play a three-game series in Kansas City later on this month. Royals first baseman Vinnie Pasquantino has provided a shot in the arm for a team that needs somebody to step up. He paces the club in home runs (28) and RBI (95). 🎤 Cory Provus calls play-by-play for Twins-Royals alongside analyst and World Series champion Dontrelle Willis.
