How to watch the NFL Preseason
The National Football League preseason is the period each year during which NFL teams play several not-for-the-record exhibition games before the regular season starts.
The preseason gives coaches and general managers a chance to evaluate their team’s talent and depth, get a look at new players, and game plan for the regular season. Players use the preseason to shake off the rust from the offseason, work on their individual skills, and gel as a team.
Because the games don’t count in the standings, teams often use a mix of starters and backups, giving everyone a chance to play. This can make it tough for fans to know when to tune in.
