How to Stream Bills vs. Chargers
The right streaming option depends on whether the game is airing on your local FOX station.
If the game is available locally: FOX One subscribers can stream the local FOX game, subject to regional availability. A live-TV streaming plan that includes your local FOX station, such as YouTube TV, is another option. Confirm the game appears in your program guide before kickoff.
If the game is outside your local market: NFL Sunday Ticket carries Sunday afternoon games that are unavailable on your local broadcasts. It is offered through YouTube as a standalone Primetime Channel or as an add-on to a YouTube TV plan.
A regular YouTube TV subscription and NFL Sunday Ticket provide different coverage. Local FOX games come through the live-TV plan; eligible out-of-market games require Sunday Ticket.
If you are watching on a phone or tablet: NFL+ offers the live game when it is available in your local television market. A subscription is required. The NFL says these live local broadcasts cannot be cast to a television.
Who Is Announcing Bills vs. Chargers?
Kevin Burkhardt will handle play-by-play for FOX, with Tom Brady providing analysis. Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi will report from the sidelines.
Both teams list that broadcast crew in their official viewing information.
How to Listen on the Radio
Bills fans in Buffalo can listen on 97 Rock, WGRF-FM, the team’s flagship radio station for the 2026 season.
The Chargers broadcast airs on KFI AM 640, with Matt “Money” Smith on play-by-play, Daniel Jeremiah providing analysis and Shannon Farren reporting from the sidelines.
NFL+ also offers live game audio across supported devices for subscribers.
What to Watch in the Matchup
Josh Allen has given Buffalo a fast start. Through two games, he has 582 passing yards, five touchdown passes and no interceptions, along with four rushing touchdowns.
That creates a demanding road assignment for Los Angeles. The Chargers need their first win, and slowing an offense that can score through Allen’s arm and legs will be central to that effort.
