This weekend, the Houston Texans will play the Kansas City Chiefs in a Saturday game airing at 1 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock. A special episode of Football Night in America will precede the game, airing at 12 p.m. ET. The Texans vs. Chiefs game is one of two Saturday games this weekend – the other is between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Baltimore Ravens. (The same four teams will also be playing on Christmas Day later in the week.) Chiefs’ quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who injured his ankle during last weekend’s game against the Cleveland Browns, is week-to-week and is likely to miss the game against the Texans (as a result, the Texans are favored to win).

And for fans of EA’s Madden NFL 25, Peacock will be live streaming a second feed of the game, combining elements of the video game with the actual game as it happens in real time. According to an NBC press release, the so-called, EA Sports Madden NFL Cast will “reimagine live football by incorporating features from Madden NFL 25 right into the action in a way that’ll feel amazingly familiar to fans of the video game itself.” Here’s all the info you need about how to watch today’s Texans vs. Chiefs game, and check out live game-day updates here.

Many NFL games are broadcast on local channels, so if you’re looking to catch an in-market game, it may be as simple as turning on your TV (or setting up a digital TV antenna). A $7/month subscription to NFL+ will get you access to NFL Network which can be great for watching some games, but the downside of NFL+ is that when it comes to the regular season, it’s just local and primetime games (and only on mobile or tablet!). In which case, here’s what we recommend to watch the NFL.

Fubo TV gives you access to ESPN, NFL Network, Fox, ABC, CBS and 100+ more live channels. At $80/month, the live TV streaming service is definitely a big investment for football fans. But it offers nearly every channel you’ll need to watch the NFL season, and still leaves you with major savings compared to a traditional cable package. Fubo subscribers also get 1000 hours of cloud DVR storage. 

Right now you can get $30 off any Fubo tier for your first month.
