Monday Night Football brings the Kansas City Chiefs to EverBank Stadium to face the Jacksonville Jaguars on Monday, October 6, 2025, with kickoff at 8:15 p.m. ET (7:15 p.m. CT / 5:15 p.m. PT).
For fans in India, the start time is Tuesday, October 7 at 5:45 a.m. IST. The game is televised nationally on ABC and ESPN, giving fans multiple ways to tune in live in prime time.
How To Watch In The U.S.
If you have cable or satellite, simply tune to ABC or ESPN. Cord-cutters can stream through the ESPN app by signing in with an eligible TV provider.
Most live-TV streaming bundles that carry ABC/ESPN (e.g., Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV, Fubo, DirecTV Stream) will also work—just open the platform’s app and search for Monday Night Football.
On mobile, NFL+ lets you watch live local and primetime games on phones and tablets, and NFL+ Premium adds full and condensed replays after the final whistle.
How To Watch In India And Internationally
Outside the U.S.—including India—the matchup streams on NFL Game Pass International via DAZN, offering live and on-demand access.
You can watch on smart TVs, web browsers, and mobile devices, with features like pausing, rewinding, and replays so you never miss a pivotal Patrick Mahomes or Trevor Lawrence moment.
Announcers And Radio
Expect the flagship MNF crew: Joe Buck (play-by-play) and Troy Aikman (analyst) in the booth, with sideline reporters providing injury and strategy updates throughout the night.
Prefer audio? Check your local Jaguars and Chiefs radio affiliates for the live call, or listen via a national radio broadcast if available in your area.
Odds, Records And Storylines
Entering Week 5, this is a high-stakes AFC test. Books have generally listed Kansas City as a small road favorite (roughly a field goal) with the total in the mid-40s—numbers that can move as kickoff approaches.
On the field, watch for Mahomes extending plays against a hungry Jaguars pass rush, Chris Jones disrupting the interior, and Trevor Lawrence testing Kansas City’s secondary with tempo and quick reads. Special teams could be decisive in a game with tight margins.
Device Tips And Quality
For the crispest experience, ensure you have a stable high-speed connection and update your ESPN or DAZN app before the game.
Most platforms support HD streams on compatible devices; some smart TVs and streaming sticks deliver the smoothest playback for live sports.
If you’re watching on mobile with NFL+, use headphones for clearer crowd noise and commentary.
