🙅 Why is my NFL Preseason game blacked out on NFL Network or ESPN Unlimited?
If a game on NFL Network or ESPN Unlimited is blacked out in your area, you will see a blackout message in place of the game. You're seeing a blackout message because a local channel in your area is broadcasting the game.

🚨 Troubleshooting issues with watching NFL Preseason football
The search says I should have a game in my area, but I don't see it in my guide; what can I do?
Try the following steps to find your game:
-
Tune in to the channel showing the game
- In rare cases, your guide may not have been updated, so while the game is showing, it's not reflected in the guide listing
-
Check the Sports or Home screens for your game
- There may have been a change to the channel broadcasting your game, and that change wasn't reflected in our guide listings
-
Make sure you have the correct date selected in your Channel Guide, and that you're not using any channel filters
- Use the available date filter to make sure you're looking at the correct date
- Select the All or Local filters to see all available channels, or only your local channels

I'm getting a blackout message while trying to watch NFL Preseason football on my local channel; what can I do?
- In very rare cases, a local channel may have the broadcast rights to an NFL Preseason game; however, that channel does not have the streaming rights to the game
- Unfortunately, in this case, the game would be unavailable to watch on Fubo
- However, these rules typically only apply in preseason games; you would be able to watch regular season games without issue
