Football is back tonight!
Tonight, NFL football returns. Yes, it’s preseason football, and yes, it’s just the Hall of Fame Game, but it’s still football.
This evening, the Los Angeles Chargers and Detroit Lions will kick off the 2025 preseason when they face off just outside the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The game is one part of this weekend’s enshrinement festivities, which will run through the next several days.
This year’s class of players will officially be enshrined on Saturday afternoon, at which time former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Sterling Sharpe will join the exclusive club. Sharpe will join his brother Shannon in Canton, making the pair the first brothers to be inducted.
Sharpe is part of a four-man class this year, which includes defensive back Eric Allen, defensive end Jared Allen, and tight end Antonio Gates.
But before speeches begin on Saturday, there’s a football game to be played. Here are the details for how and when to tune in for tonight’s contest!
