Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I watch the Detroit Lions in New Orleans?
In New Orleans, you can watch Detroit Lions games without blackout restrictions. Your best options include NFL Sunday Ticket for all out-of-market Sunday games. For specific national broadcasts, you'll use Amazon Prime Video for Thursday Night Football, Peacock for Sunday Night Football, and ESPN/ABC for Monday Night Football. NFL+ offers live local and primetime games on mobile devices. Local CBS/FOX/NBC affiliates will show in-market games, but as the Lions are out-of-market for New Orleans, these will typically be other matchups unless the Lions are on a national broadcast.

Can I watch Detroit Lions games for free in New Orleans?
Watching Detroit Lions games for free in New Orleans is possible for certain matchups. If the Lions are featured on a national broadcast like Sunday Night Football (Peacock) or Monday Night Football (ESPN/ABC), you might catch them via a free trial of a live TV streaming service that includes those channels. Peacock occasionally offers a free tier that might include some NFL content, but typically SNF requires a paid subscription. For local games (which would be rare for Lions in New Orleans unless it's a national broadcast), an over-the-air antenna could pick up CBS, FOX, or NBC if the game is aired there. However, for consistent access to all out-of-market Lions games, a paid subscription like NFL Sunday Ticket is necessary.
