Field Gulls
The Seattle Seahawks get their 2025 NFL preseason underway on Thursday night at 7 pm PT against the Las Vegas Raiders. If you’re not caught up on how television rights work for preseason vs. regular season, then you’ll want to at least bookmark this page for the rest of August.
All Seahawks games will be broadcast locally in Seattle on KING-5 television, Seattle’s flagship station for Seahawks preseason games and other local television programming. None of Seattle’s exhibitions was picked up for national broadcast by FOX, CBS, NBC (national), or ESPN, so you might be wondering how you can watch the Seahawks if you don’t have KING-5.
The first thing to note is that KING-5’s broadcasts are also shown on other television affiliates in the Seahawks’ secondary markets. Here are the local affiliates throughout the team’s designated preseason markets.
If you have access to any of these channels, you can watch the Seahawks!
For fans in the local Seattle market and international fans in Canada, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Australia and New Zealand, the game will be available to watch on mobile devices via the Seahawks Mobile App and Seahawks.com.
This is a big deal for our overseas viewers in designated regions where the Seahawks hold local marketing rights. You can also watch on Seahawks.com even if you live in Seattle but don’t have KING-5!
If you are out-of-market, there are other options! NFL Network is carrying the Raiders game live, so if you’re outside the range of the Seahawks’ television affiliates then you’re golden. You can also subscribe to NFL+ for access to out-of-market preseason games, Seahawks included.
That should cover everything! You can always check out the radio affiliates here if you want to listen to Steve Raible on the call.
