49ers TV Coverage FAQ

What channel is the 49ers game on this week?

The 49ers are on their bye in Week 8 — no game this week. The coverage map below is from their most recent game.

Why can't I watch the 49ers game in my area?

Sunday afternoon NFL games on CBS and FOX are regional: each network airs several games at once, and each local station is assigned one of them based on its market. A typical 49ers regional broadcast reaches about 91 of the 210 TV markets, so the rest of the country gets another game in that window. If your local station is showing a different game, the 49ers game isn't available over the air where you are — out-of-market games are only available through NFL Sunday Ticket. National games (Sunday, Monday and Thursday nights) aren't affected.

Where did the 49ers' last game air?

49ers at Falcons (Week 7, October 25, 2026) aired on FOX in 2,504 counties across 157 TV markets, including Los Angeles, Minneapolis-Saint Paul, Pittsburgh, Denver, and Charleston-Huntington, WV.

Where do 49ers games get shown the most?

Across the 2024 and 2026 NFL seasons, San Francisco 49ers games have aired most consistently in the Chico-Redding, Santa Barbara-Santa Maria-San Luis Obispo, and Monterey-Salinas TV markets. The all-time footprint map on this page shades every county by how often it's carried a 49ers game.
