NFL Preseason national TV schedule: How to watch live games
All 32 NFL teams will commence their training camp this week, which means we're less than two weeks away from the first preseason game of the 2021 campaign.
The Hall of Fame Game will be the first live NFL action of the new season. The NFL preseason is just three weeks this year compared to the usual four. The league reduced the length of the preseason to accommodate the 17th game into the regular-season schedule.
