GLENDALE, Ariz. — The Arizona Cardinals will return to primetime for the first time since Christmas Night 2022 when they play the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday Night Football at State Farm Stadium.
However, this won't be a traditional Monday Night Football broadcast. This will be the first-ever Monday Night Football game streamed on ESPN's streaming platform, ESPN+.
So, yes, that means you will need an ESPN+ subscription to watch the game if you won't be one of the many fans in Glendale and won't be in front of a television.
The game will be aired locally on FOX 10, as well, according to the Cardinals.
If you are an Arizona State fan who got an ESPN+ subscription to watch the Sun Devils take on Cincinnati on Saturday, then you are good to go for Monday Night Football, as well.
There will also be a stream on mobile devices available in the Valley through NFL+, which also requires a subscription.
You can also listen to the game on the radio on 98.7 FM Arizona Sports where Dave Pasch and Ron Wolfley will have the call. Pregame coverage on Arizona Sports begins at 2:30 p.m.
The primetime matchup between the Cardinals and Chargers kicks off at 6 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 21 at State Farm Stadium in Glendale.
