The NFL Week 9 schedule has the potential to produce a compelling Sunday full of games.
The action begins early again with another international game, when the Cincinnati Bengals and Atlanta Falcons play in Madrid, Spain, in the morning on NFL Network. As usual, FOX and CBS will split the rights to the 11-game Sunday afternoon slate from there.
FOX will get to broadcast six games, as well as the ability to show a game in both the early- and late-afternoon windows in each region. CBS will have the rights to five games and will broadcast just one regionally.
Fox's Week 9 coverage map will feature two marquee games, beginning with the Dallas Cowboys visiting the Indianapolis Colts during the early Sunday afternoon window. Most NFL fans in the country
will then have access to FOX's coverage of the Green Bay Packers vs. New England Patriots in the late afternoon window. Former Patriots quarterback Tom Brady will be in the broadcast booth and Rob Gronkowski will be inducted into the franchise's hall of fame in conjunction with the game.
Coverage on CBS won't focus on a singular matchup in either time slot, although the Kansas City Chiefs vs. New York Jets and Denver Broncos vs. Carolina Panthers in the early afternoon window are the games available in the most local markets.
Here's a look at which games will be broadcast in each area of the country during Week 9 of the 2026 NFL season.
