How to watch Monday Night Football today: kickoff time, streaming options, and blackout workarounds
Monday Night Football returns in prime time with a fresh matchup and a few 2025 quirks fans should know about—most notably a continuing carriage dispute affecting a major live-TV streaming bundle. Here’s how to watch tonight’s game, what to do if your usual service no longer carries the rights-holding channels, and the easiest legal low-cost options.
Monday Night Football time and matchup
-
Date: Monday, November 10, 2025
-
Kickoff: 8:15 p.m. ET / 1:15 a.m. GMT
-
Teams: Philadelphia Eagles vs. Green Bay Packers
Note: schedules and start times can shift; double-check shortly before kickoff.
The easiest ways to stream MNF in the U.S. (2025)
-
Traditional cable/satellite: If your package includes the national sports network that owns MNF plus its broadcast simulcast partner, you can watch on TV or sign in to the network/app with your provider credentials to stream on mobile and connected devices.
-
League’s own mobile service: This offers live primetime games on phones and tablets (U.S. only). It’s inexpensive but does not include casting to TV; it’s best for on-the-go viewing.
-
“Skinny bundle” live-TV streamers: Several multichannel services still carry the MNF rights-holding networks. New-subscriber promos or free trials are often available; check the channel list before you sign up.
-
New direct-to-consumer sports bundle: The rights-holder launched a stand-alone subscription this season that streams MNF and related studio shows without a cable login. If you’ve cut the cord and only want these channels, this is the cleanest path.
If your usual service lost the MNF channels
As of late October, one major live-TV streaming bundle removed the rights-holder’s channels during a contract dispute. If that’s your provider, you have three practical choices tonight:
-
Switch temporarily to a competing live-TV bundle that still carries the MNF networks (month-to-month, cancel anytime).
-
Use the stand-alone sports subscription from the rights-holder to stream the game directly.
-
Go mobile with the league’s phone/tablet plan if a small screen is acceptable.
Tip: If you prefer not to cancel your main bundle, sign up for a short-term promo on an alternative service and set a reminder to cancel after the game or after the free trial window.
Can I watch free over the air?
Many MNF weeks are simulcast on a national broadcast network. If the game is carried in your area, an HD antenna connected to your TV is a one-time purchase that delivers the broadcast for free. Indoor flat antennas work for many city apartments; suburban/rural homes may need an amplified or attic/roof model. Use any coverage map to confirm reception for your ZIP code.
Devices, picture quality, and features
-
Devices: Smart TVs, streaming sticks, game consoles, phones, and tablets are supported across the options above; always update your app before kickoff.
-
4K/HDR: Occasional enhanced feeds appear during the season, but availability varies by provider and device. If 4K is offered, you’ll usually need a higher-tier plan and a compatible TV.
-
Alt telecasts: Select weeks feature an alternate commentary feed on a sister channel; it streams in the same apps when available.
-
DVR: Cloud DVR is included with many live-TV bundles—handy if you want a delayed start. Mobile-only league plans typically don’t include DVR.
Watching outside the U.S.
-
Canada: MNF airs on national sports channels and through participating live-TV streamers; the league’s international streaming product may also carry primetime games.
-
UK & Ireland (GMT): A pay-sports channel typically carries MNF live at 1:15 a.m. GMT; check your provider’s listings.
-
Elsewhere: In many regions, the league’s international streaming service offers live and on-demand coverage; local pay-TV partners may also carry the game.
Low-cost playbook (legal)
-
Mobile-only plan: Cheapest path if you’re fine watching on a phone/tablet.
-
Stand-alone sports bundle: Mid-priced, no cable required, includes MNF.
-
Antenna: One-time cost if the broadcast simulcast is in range.
-
Trial hop: Use a free trial from a qualifying live-TV bundle for weeks with can’t-miss matchups.

If using an antenna, run a channel scan and position it near a window.
-
Enable Do Not Disturb on mobile if you’re DVR-delaying to avoid spoilers.
