If you’ve been counting the days until the NFL’s return, you can stop counting.

The 2024 preseason starts tonight with two games and another three tomorrow, including the New York Giants hosting the Detroit Lions.

The New York Jets will host the Washington Commanders on Saturday.

But, if you want to be in regular-season form ahead of the Sept. 5 season starter, you’re going to need up your streaming platform game.

The National Football League will carry the majority of its 2024 preseason games on the streaming network, NFL+, and carry a host of regular-season match-ups on platforms like Netflix, NFL+, Amazon Prime and Peacock.
