NFL announced preseason national TV schedule

[ASFN Admin]

The NFL announced its full preseason schedule on Wednesday. The Arizona Cardinals' finalized schedule was announced last week.

But Cardinals fans might want to know the preseason games around the league that will be on national broadcasts.

The league announced that five total preseason games will be national broadcasts, starting with the Cardinals' preseason opener in the Hall of Fame Game in Canton, Ohio, kicking off the weekend of festivities before the 2026 class is enshrined into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, which includes former Arizona Cardinals legend Larry Fitzgerald.

The Hall of Fame Game will be on NBC. Then, in preseason Week 2, two games will be nationally televised or streamed, and two others will air or stream nationally in preseason Week 3.

Not yet announced are the live preseason games that will air on NFL Network, showing the home team's broadcast team.
