NFL Week 18 coverage map: Full TV schedule for CBS, Fox regional broadcasts | Sporting News (2024)

The 2023 NFL regular season is coming to an end on the second Sunday of 2024. Soon, the league will have its 14-team playoff field set, and the battle to win Super Bowl 58 will begin in earnest.

Before that happens, NFL fans will be treated to one more massive Sunday slate during which almost every NFL team will be in action. That will create plenty of excitement as teams across the league try to wrap up playoff berths.

Because there are so many games to be played, both CBS and Fox will get a chance to broadcast a doubleheader with games in the 1 p.m. ET and 4 p.m. ET windows. There are 13 games on the main slate, and many of them will come with major playoff implications.

CBS' broadcast will focus on win-and-in games for the Jaguars (at Titans) and Packers (vs. Bears) in their 1 p.m. ET and 4:25 p.m. ET slates respectively. Fox's coverage will focus mostly on what should be a competitive Vikings-Lions game and the Cowboys-Commanders game, which can give the No. 2 seed in the NFC to Dallas with a victory.

Those aren't the only significant games that will take place in Week 18. The Buccaneers will face the Panthers with a chance to wrap up the NFC South with a win, and we could see Bill Belichick's final game in charge of the Patriots as they face the Jets at Gillette Stadium.

Below are the full NFL coverage maps for Week 18, plus a list of major TV markets and the CBS and Fox games that will be presented in each on Sunday.
