Where it is available. No MLB-style narrow local blackout territory. NFL's ticket-sellout local blackout rule has been voluntarily suspended by NFL owners since 2015 (31-1 vote) and remains suspended for 2026 (renewed year-to-year, not permanently repealed) -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NFL_television_blackout_policies .

Local rights, apps and prices from each team, network and service’s own pages; schedules from the leagues and ESPN. Blackouts follow the league’s territory map, not state lines, so a game marked local may not be available at the edge of the market.
