Sunday Night Football schedule for the 2024–25 NFL season is finally out, with the official NFL schedule released on May 15, 2024. As fans are eagerly waiting for the new season to get underway, which is still quite a few months away, they can start planning their Sunday night schedules as early as May.

Sunday Night Football is one of the best ways for fans to relax and enjoy the games as the weekend comes to an end. As a result, the NFL tries to keep as many key games as they can which is not only beneficial for the fans but also helps with revenue. Furthermore, it also concludes the long list of games that have taken place throughout the day at various times all over the country.

Sunday Night Football TV Channel

Sunday Night Football (SNF) belongs completely to NBC and its streaming service, Peacock. Generally, Sunday games for FOX and CBS are decided as per the following criteria:

AFC team games broadcast rights belong to CBS

NFC team games broadcast rights belong to FOX

Interconference games meaning AFC teams vs NFC teams broadcast rights are given to the away team’s network. (Meaning, if the away team belongs to the AFC, then CBS will broadcast the game, and vice-versa).

The upside for NBC is that Sunday Night Football is considered a primetime slot and that gives the channel exclusive rights to host these games for the entire duration of the NFL season.

Sunday Night Football Kickoff Time

Sunday Night Football kickoff time is generally 8:20 p.m. Eastern time, live on NBC and its streaming platform Peacock which provides viewers more than one option to watch the games. As this is a prime time slot, there is little to no change in the time of the games for the entirety of the NFL season.

However, it is worth noting that despite the fact that the 2024 Sunday Night Football schedule is out, a few of these games may get flexed depending on how the NFL sees fit. Therefore, it is important to watch games that may be flexed, especially towards the mid to later stages of the season.

Sunday Night Football Key Matchups (Week 8 - Dallas Cowboys vs San Francisco 49ers)

After seven weeks of football, neither the Dallas Cowboys or the San Francisco 49ers are where they want to be. Both teams have three wins so far but expectations were much higher entering the season.

Both the Cowboys and the Niners lost their WR2s to injuries which means more onus will be placed on the likes of CeeDee Lamb and Deebo Samuel when the two franchises clash under the bright lights of Sunday Night Football.

The Cowboys vs 49ers game will kick off at 8:20 pm Eastern live from Levi’s Field. The game will be broadcast nationally on NBC.
