The best options for local Packers fans
NFL regional TV coverage is fluid, with viewing territories changing from week to week in some markets. Local Green Bay fans can count on seeing the Packers each week, but because the team has a nationwide following, games are also often broadcast to large sections of the country far away from the Green Bay TV market.
NFL+ – excellent value for mobile users
It’s important to point out that NFL+ users can only watch games on mobile devices and tablets except for out-of-market preseason NFL games.
However, if you are a local Packers fan that enjoys watching the team on mobile, NFL+ offers full coverage of the season, plus national marquee games like Thursday Night Football, at a very attractive rate of $40 per year.
Pros
- Full coverage for local Packer fans
- Excellent value for money
- Live audio of NFL games
- Free trial
Cons
- Only available on mobile and tablet

The platform’s mobile app features a fantasy football integration that allows fantasy stats to be viewed in real time as you watch the game. YouTube TV is the most innovative of the live TV streaming services for sports, but a Google account is required to sign up.

Sling TV – major gaps in coverage
No, you cannot watch the Green Bay Packers on Sling TV in the Green Bay market. Sling TV only carries FOX and NBC in select markets, and Green Bay is not currently one of them.
This means that WLUK-TV viewers in Green Bay cannot get Packers games that appear on FOX with Sling.
Pros

Cons
- No coverage from Green Bay market

How to watch the Packers out-of-market
Remember, the Packers are on national TV and what I call hybrid national games (which are regional but broadcast to huge sections of the country) quite a bit, so some Packers fans may want to think twice before paying for Sunday Ticket. However, if you want a guarantee that you will get every Packers game, Sunday Ticket is the play.
YouTube TV + NFL Sunday Ticket
New for 2023, YouTube TV holds the rights to NFL Sunday Ticket, which is the only way to watch the Packers out-of-market.
Note: Sunday Ticket is an additional fee ($349) over the base YouTube TV subscription price.
Pros
- Watch out-of-market 1pm and 4pm Packers games
- Multiview feature available for watching multiple games
Cons
- No 4K for Sunday Ticket
- National games not available
Green Bay Packers player to watch – #10
As a long-suffering Detroit Lions fan who is used to watching Aaron Rodgers break the Lions’ hearts twice a season, I am glad he moved on to the Jets. The Packer’s new starter, Jordan Love, has big shoes to fill and tremendous pressure on his shoulders for the 2023 season. Love, who played his college ball at Utah State, has never experienced an environment like he will face this season. Will he step up and continue the Packers’ legacy of Hall of Fame QBs? We will definitely be tuning in this season to watch #10 when the lights are the brightest.
Watching the Green Bay Packers FAQ
No, you cannot watch Packers games on Bally Sports Wisconsin. Bally Sports Wisconsin has the TV rights to air in-market Brewers and Bucks games, but not Packers games.
Assuming you are an in-market fan, signup for an account on fuboTV, which in our experience is the fastest live TV streaming service to setup. Make note of your username and password on a piece of paper. If you want to watch on your phone, download the fuboTV app. Here is the iOS link and here is the Android link. Login to the app, continue using a web browser, or download the fuboTV app to your Roku, or smart TV. As you go through the setup process, select the Packers as a team to follow by enabling the “keep up with your favorite teams” feature. After logging in and goin through the setup screens, navigate to the channel list and find FOX, ESPN, CBS, or NBC depending on where the game is airing. Start watching.
Out-of-market fans will need to subscribe to NFL Sunday Ticket, or if the game is a Thursday Night game, watch on Amazon Prime.
