Limited Local Broadcast for Green Bay Packers' Week Two Game on FOX

If you are a fan of the Green Bay Packers residing outside of the upper Midwest or the Dakotas, you may encounter some disappointment this week. The Packers' week two matchup against the Indianapolis Colts, being broadcast on FOX, will have a restricted local broadcast footprint. The game will primarily be shown in Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, and parts of North and South Dakota.

Due to various factors, the viewership of this game will be smaller compared to last week's broadcast on streaming service Peacock. One reason is that CBS has the national doubleheader this weekend, which means local FOX affiliates must choose one game out of a selection of six. Consequently, the Saints-Cowboys game will receive FOX's primary broadcast team and will be shown in most markets instead of the Colts-Packers matchup.

Another contributing factor is Jordan Love's injury, which may impact the viewership to some extent. Additionally, there are specific teams' home markets, indicated by pockets of yellow on the map, where the game will not air. These markets, including the Twin Cities, Nashville, Charlotte, Cleveland, Baltimore, and Jacksonville, will only broadcast FOX's single late afternoon option (Rams-Cardinals) while their home teams are playing the early games on CBS.

Nevertheless, out-of-market Packers fans still have options to catch the game. Local establishments with NFL Sunday Ticket should have the Packers game available, and individuals can consider purchasing an individual subscription to Sunday Ticket via YoutubeTV. College students can also benefit from a discounted rate on Sunday Ticket.

While the local broadcast for the Green Bay Packers' week two game may be limited, dedicated fans will find ways to support their team and enjoy the excitement of the matchup against the Indianapolis Colts.
