Is ‘Sunday Night Football’ On NBC or Peacock Tonight? ‘Sunday Night Football’ Channel, Schedule Info

The first regular season Sunday Night Football game takes place on September 7 when Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills host Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens on NBC and Peacock. It’ll be the first of two early SNF matchups for the subjects of this year’s Hard Knocks as Buffalo will also host Drake Maye and the New England Patriots in Week 5 (October 5).

The debut SNF game of the 25-26 season will not only be a battle between two teams with legitimate Super Bowl aspirations — the Bills finished their 24-25 campaign with a 13-4 record, while the Ravens ended the regular season at 12-5 — but it’ll also be a rematch of their classic 2025 divisional round playoff game (a 27-25 Buffalo win). But that’s the future; let’s talk about the present, shall we?
