Seattle Seahawks on CBS in 2026 — when + how to stream
CBS broadcasts Seahawks games when they play AFC opponents. Here’s the schedule + streaming options.
TL;DR: The Seattle Seahawks on CBS in 2026 means one of two things: a Seahawks road game against an AFC opponent (the AFC home network CBS carries the broadcast) or a Seahawks home game against an AFC team (CBS sends a regional broadcast crew to Seattle). Most Seahawks games actually air on FOX, since Seattle is in the NFC West. Free options: $30 OTA antenna picks up CBS in HD in your local market. Cheapest paid path: Slam Dunk Zone at $39.95/mo flat carries CBS plus FOX, NBC, ESPN, and the Thursday-night streaming feed in one membership. 5,000+ HD channels, 6 simultaneous devices, AccuViewTV 24/7 support.
When the Seahawks actually play on CBS
Seattle is in the NFC West, so most Seahawks games air on FOX (the NFC home network carries NFC home matchups). CBS broadcasts Seahawks games specifically when:
- Seahawks road game vs AFC team: The AFC home network is CBS, which carries the broadcast.
- Seahawks home game vs AFC team: When CBS gets the away team’s TV territory, CBS sends a regional crew.
- Postseason: CBS rotates with FOX/NBC/ESPN for Wild Card and Divisional broadcasts.
- Christmas Day or other special slots: CBS occasionally carries a Seahawks special-window broadcast.
