how to watch bengals eagles

You can watch a Bengals–Eagles matchup a few different ways depending on whether it’s a preseason or regular‑season game, and where you live.

Quick Scoop

For most Bengals vs. Eagles games, your options fall into three buckets: local TV, official team/NFL streaming, and radio/audio.

1. Local TV channels

When Bengals–Eagles is a preseason game, it’s usually carried on regional affiliates in the Cincinnati and Philadelphia markets rather than a national network.

Typical examples (these can vary by year, but this is how it’s often set up):

  • Cincinnati area: WXIX FOX19, sometimes ABC or other local partners.
  • Columbus / Dayton / nearby Ohio: WSYX ABC6 (Columbus), WKEF ABC22 (Dayton), WLIO FOX 8.2 in Lima.
  • Kentucky markets: WLEX (Lex 18, Lexington), WDRB FOX41 (Louisville).
  • Philadelphia area: NBC10 in Philly plus other regional FOX affiliates (WPMT FOX43, WOLF FOX56, WWCP FOX 8, etc.).

For a regular‑season matchup, look at the usual national partners: FOX or CBS for Sunday daytime, NBC for Sunday night, ESPN for Monday night, Amazon Prime for Thursday night.

Tip: Check your local listings the week of the game; Bengals and Eagles sites usually post exact channels for each region.

2. Streaming the game

You’ve got a few official streaming routes depending on where you are:

  1. In local markets (Cincy or Philly):
    • Team apps and sites sometimes carry a free live stream for preseason:
      • Bengals.com and Bengals mobile app for in‑market fans.
   * Eagles mobile app and PhiladelphiaEagles.com for those within the Philadelphia market.

 * Some preseason games also appear in the NFL’s live preseason slate on NFL+, so you can stream there as well.
  1. Out of market (you don’t live near either team):
    • NFL+ : carries all preseason games live, and local/primetime regular‑season games on mobile and tablet.
 * For regular season, if the game is on CBS or FOX in your area, you can stream via:
   * Paramount+ for CBS‑carried games.

   * FOX Sports app or website when you sign in with a TV provider.

 * If it’s a national window:
   * NBC Sports app/site for Sunday Night Football.

   * ESPN app/site (TV provider login) for Monday Night Football.

   * Amazon Prime Video for Thursday Night Football (included with Prime).
  1. International viewers:
    • NFL’s international Game Pass product (via the NFL’s global streaming platform) is typically the official way to stream Bengals–Eagles outside the U.S. and a few excluded regions.

3. If you can’t watch video

If video’s not an option, you can still follow along live via radio and watch‑along streams.

  • Team radio networks:
    • Bengals: WCKY 1530 AM, WEBN‑FM 102.7, WLW 700 AM, plus audio in the Bengals app.
* Eagles: SportsRadio 94WIP and live radio streams through the Eagles app/site in the Philly market.
  • YouTube “watch parties”:
    • Creators run live play‑by‑play and reaction streams (audio/analysis only, not the game footage) so you can sync your own TV/NFL+ stream with their commentary.

Example setup:
You’re in Cincinnati for a preseason Bengals–Eagles: turn on FOX19 for TV, or stream in‑market on Bengals.com or the Bengals app; if you’re out of market, fire up NFL+ and optionally sync a YouTube watch‑along for extra commentary.

4. Quick checklist before kickoff

Run through this a day or two before the game:

  1. Check Bengals and Eagles official sites for: game time, listed TV channels, and which regions get which station.
  1. Confirm what type of game it is (preseason vs regular‑season) so you know whether to lean on local affiliates or the big national partners.
  1. Make sure your NFL+, Paramount+, Prime Video, or cable login works if you’ll need them.
  1. If you’re outside the U.S., verify access via the NFL’s international streaming platform.
