Which TV networks will air playoff games in the 2025 NFL postseason?

The schedule for Wild Card Weekend in the NFL is set.

Only in the last game of the regular season between the Detroit Lions and the Minnesota Vikings could it be determined who the NFC North champion and No. 1 in the NFC was. The Lions pulled away in the second half to take the win and secure the NFC’s only bye week.

That means the Lions and Kansas City Chiefs will be watching the games this weekend along with the rest of us.

Here are the networks you need to tune into for each game.

What about the rest of the NFL playoffs?

Looking ahead to the rest of the NFL playoffs, you can expect each of the four networks – ESPN, FOX, NBC and CBS – to play a game during the Divisional Round of the playoffs. For example, last season’s Divisional Round weekend began Saturday with the Texans-Ravens on ESPN, followed by the Packers-49ers on FOX. On Sunday, NBC aired the Buccaneers-Lions game, while CBS wrapped up the weekend with the Chiefs-Bills.

For the conference championship games, FOX will air the NFC Championship game on Sunday, January 26th at 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Kevin Burkhardt and Tom Brady will be on the phone. The AFC Championship Game follows at 6:30 p.m. Eastern on CBS, with Jim Nantz and Tony Romo in the booth.

Which channel will broadcast Super Bowl LIX?

Looking ahead, you may be wondering which network will broadcast Super Bowl LIX, which takes place on February 9th in New Orleans.

That would be FOX, meaning Tom Brady’s first season in the booth ends with him calling Super Bowl LIX alongside Kevin Burkhardt.

Be excited.
