While the NFL season doesn’t start until September, there’s plenty of action for football fans to look forward to in the preseason. Saturday, Aug. 8, will see a total of eight games played, including the Jets visiting the Packers at Lambeau Field.
The last time the teams met was in Oct. 2022, when the Jets routed the Packers 27-10. The game will air locally on CBS in Wisconsin, the Midwest, and New York. If you’re out of the market, you can catch the game nationally on the NFL Network.
