Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Cleveland Browns: How to watch today's NFL game, kickoff time, TV channel and more
The Steelers play the Browns this Sunday, here's how to tune in to the game.
The Pittsburgh Steelers narrowly came away with a 29-24 win during their game against the Detroit Lions last Sunday, after a Lions touchdown in the final seconds of the game was nullified. While it was a much-needed victory for the the AFC North leaders, the evening was not all good news: Steelers wideout DK Metcalf is now suspended for the last two games of the regular season as the result of an altercation with a fan during the game. Metcalf is appealing the decision, but it's expected that he won't appear in the Steeler's Sunday game against division rivals the Cleveland Browns.

How to watch NFL games in 2025:
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) or finding a live TV streaming service that carries the correct RSN (Regional Sports Network). If you want to watch out-of-market games, a $7 monthly subscription to NFL+ will let you watch every out-of-market-game local and primetime game in the season on your phone — but only a select few regular season games on your TV. You could also spring for the uber-expensive NFL Sunday Ticket package to get every out-of-market Sunday game of the season.
When it comes to nationally broadcast games, NFL games typically air across ESPN, NBC, CBS, Fox, ABC and NFL Network. Thursday Night Football games stream exclusively on Amazon Prime Video, select football games will stream exclusively on Peacock, games on CBS will stream live on Paramount+, and Monday Night Football games will air on ESPN or ABC and stream on the newly revamped ESPN+ this season. That's six channels and four streaming platforms to keep up with this season — and that's not counting your local RSN's for in-market games and an NFL+ or NFL Sunday Ticket subscription for out-of-market games. Plus, Netflix is once again hosting at least two Christmas Day matches, so add that subscription into the mix. And we can't forget about Fox One, Fox's first streaming service, a place where you can also stream games airing on FOX (if you don't already have access to it).
Confused? You're not alone. Here's a breakdown of the platforms we recommend checking out ahead of the 2025 NFL season, so that come game time, tuning into your favorite team's games will be as easy as simply turning on the TV.
