Where to watch Lions vs. Chargers in 2025 Hall of Fame Game: TV channel, time, live stream
After a 172-day hiatus, there is NFL football to be played today.
While the game won't count in the standings, the NFL's Hall of Fame Game represents the start of something new as we honor the past. The official kickoff of the 2025 regular season won't take place for another month, but the preseason is where some stars are born and others earn roster spots for the upcoming campaign.
Jared Goff and Justin Herbert won't be dueling as the Detroit Lions take on the Los Angeles Chargers, however.
Trey Lance will get the start under center for Los Angeles. Detroit has left it more of a mystery to this point, but don't expect the big names to take the field.
After a long spring that turned to summer, any football will certainly satisfy the craving. It won't beat the real deal, but we'll take what we can get.
Here's how you can watch the action unfold in the 2025 Hall of Fame Game.
