If the Game Is in Your Market

If the game is on in your market, your only option to watch it on a computer, tablet or connected TV is via CBS All Access, a service that streams live CBS broadcasts in most U.S. markets. Streaming on smart phones is available only to Verizon customers through the NFL mobile app or Verizon’s go90 app.
The CBS All Access service costs $5.99 a month, but you can stream the game for free via the service’s free 7-day trial. You’ll have to enter your valid U.S. credit card information to sign up, but you won’t be charged if you cancel your subscription before the trial ends.

Once you set up an account, you can watch the game online, on a tablet, or on a connected TV.
The service is also available on connected TVs via XBox One, Xbox 360, Roku, Apple TV, Chromecast, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick, and PlayStation4.
