The Cleveland Browns take on the Seattle Seahakawks today for an NFL preseason Week 3 showdown. Both teams are rebounding from losses in Week 2.
Keep reading to find out how and when to watch the Cleveland Browns vs. Seattle Seahawks NFL preseason game on Saturday, even if you don’t have cable.
The Cleveland Browns vs. Seattle Seahawks NFL preseason Week 3 game will be played on Saturday, August 24, 2024 at 10:00 p.m. ET (7:00 p.m. PT). The game will air on NFL Network and stream on Sling TV and the platforms feature below.
While many cable packages include NFL Network, it’s easy to watch tonight’s Browns vs. Seahawks game if NFL Network isn’t included in your cable TV subscription, or if you don’t have cable at all. Your best options for watching are below. (Streaming options will require an internet provider.)
If you don’t have cable TV that includes NFL Network, one of the most cost-effective ways to watch tonight’s game, and all the major sporting events happening this fall, is through a subscription to Sling TV. To watch the NFL Network on Sling TV, you’ll need a subscription to the Blue tier at the minimum ($20 for your first month). We suggest leveling up your coverage to the Orange + Blue with Sports Extra tier to get more NFL and college football games this fall.
The Orange + Blue plan regularly costs $60 per month, but the streamer currently offers a $25 off promotion for your first month, so you’ll pay just $35. The Orange + Blue with Sports Extra plan is $50 for your first month and $75 per month after. The Sports Extra add-on features 18 channels, including NFL Redzone, ESPNU, SEC Network, Big 10 Network and ACC Network.
The streamer is also currently offering big savings on four months of the Orange + Blue tier plus the Sports Extra plan when you prepay for the Sling TV Season Pass. The plan costs $219, reduced from $300.
Note: Because Sling TV does not carry CBS, Sling subscribers will want to add Paramount+ to their bundle. (Paramount+ and CBS Essentials are both subsidiaries of Paramount Global.)

Soccer fans in Seattle have one more chance to catch a World Cup group stage match before the knockout rounds begin next week. And the game is moving forward on the same weekend as Seattle’s Pride festivities despite objections from both teams.
Egypt vs. Iran takes place tonight at 8 p.m. PT. Both teams are trying to advance out of Group G.
Egypt is likely moving on after tying with Belgium in Seattle’s opening World Cup Match and defeating New Zealand 3-1 in their second group stage match. A win could clinch the group for Egypt.
Iran has played two draws against Belgium and New Zealand, and the team needs at least a tie tonight to move on. A win over Egypt would confirm their place in the Round of 32.
Tickets for tonight’s World Cup match start at $521.

When Seattle announced it would host a Pride Match during the 2026 World Cup, it was long before the draw had even been made.
The match at Lumen Field on June 26 (4am on June 27 in the UK) – one of six the city is hosting – falls on the same date as Seattle’s annual Pride weekend, setting the stage for a festival of celebrations outside the stadium.
It is a game that could determine who makes it through to the knockout stage – and it is a game that will feature two countries with some of the strictest anti-gay laws in the world: Egypt and Iran.
In Iran, same-sex relationships are illegal and gay men have been executed on sodomy charges, making their laws some of the most oppressive against the LGBTQ community in the world.
Egypt has previously arrested LGBTQ people on indecency laws and has cracked down in recent years on the outward expression of Pride and the waving of rainbow flags.
Both countries have called on FIFA and Seattle to cancel the Pride celebrations.
Iran Football Federation president Mehdi Taj described the Pride branding for the match as “inappropriate” and “an irrational move”.
A statement from the Egyptian Football Association read: “Egypt categorically rejects holding any activities related to supporting (homosexuality) during the match. Such initiatives conflict with the cultural, religious and social values in the region, especially in Arab and Islamic societies.”
FIFA, which has no official involvement in the plans, has resisted calls from Iran and Egypt to cancel or move the match.
Seattle’s local organising committee says they will go ahead as planned, saying: “Soccer has a unique power to unite people across borders, cultures, and beliefs. We are honoured to host a Pride Match and to celebrate Pride as part of a global football community. This match reflects our ongoing commitment to respect, dignity and unity for all.”
Both sides will be looking to secure qualification to the round of 32, with Egypt top of group G on four points and Iran in second with two points.
Iran will also have to travel to Seattle from their base in Mexico on the day of the match due to restrictions not allowing the team to stay overnight in the United States.
Eric Wahl, who fell in love with football while living in Seattle, is a member of the Seattle Pride Match Advisory Committee and has been helping to organise the game.
He is also the brother of journalist Grant Wahl, who passed away at the Qatar World Cup in 2022 after suffering an aortic aneurysm. Wahl had a month earlier been briefly detained by security staff for wearing a rainbow football shirt.
Despite some initial apprehension when the draw was made, Eric Wahl believes the Pride Match will be an opportunity for the world to see how welcoming Seattle is.
“We had a sole mission of wanting to highlight LGBTQ organisations and businesses in Seattle and to unite that with the shared love of soccer as a world sport,” he said.
With hundreds of thousands of visitors and millions of viewers tuning into Seattle during Pride Weekend, we are presented with a unique opportunity to make a lasting impact. This moment allows us to educate the world, inspire our LGBTQ+ community, and uplift LGBTQ+ businesses and cultural organisations.
“This is actually a really positive thing.
“We want people from Egypt and Iran to know that, regardless of their personal identities, they would be welcome in Seattle, and we would be happy to have them.
“I really hope that there will be soccer fans in Iran and Egypt who will be able to watch this match for the match itself, but also with the halo of equality around it.”
Footballers in Qatar four years ago were caught up in a controversial U-turn over the ‘OneLove’ rainbow armband but Wahl does not expect the Iran or Egypt players to comment on anything except the football itself.
“I think it is par for the course [there will be questions of them] but also slightly unfair to the players on both of those national teams who have unquestionably been put into a position they didn’t ask for.
“To ask any of them to comment on these situations puts them in an unfair position.
“Whether they are for or against gay rights in general doesn’t matter to me, because they have to think about the oppressive regimes that they come from and that to me is a much greater concern.”
While FIFA is not in charge of organising the Pride Match, it has been liaising with the Seattle local organising committee and the Pride advisory committee.
The match will be treated the same as any game in the World Cup, with a FIFA spokesperson telling Sky Sports News: “The FIFA World Cup 2026 is an inclusive event that welcomes people from all backgrounds. Fans of all sexual orientations and gender identities are welcome at matches and events.”
FIFA’s branding will be limited to its regular ‘No Discrimination’ campaign material but rainbow flags will be allowed inside the stadium.
“General statements of human rights, including rainbow flags and other flags representing sexual orientation and gender identity, are permitted under the FIFA World Cup 2026 Stadium Code of Conduct and may be displayed inside stadiums provided they are used in a manner consistent with the code.”
The governing body remains adamant it will not stand for discrimination of any kind at the World Cup and that anyone can report any abuse they face at FIFA events via its app.
Any discrimination in the stadium would follow the FIFA three-step procedure in place for all matches.
First the match would be stopped when an incident occurs, with an annoucement urging spectators to cease the offensive behaviour. If it continues after the restart, the match could be suspended and even abandoned as a last resort.
Seattle hopes that instead it will be a joyous, inclusive occasion celebrating the LGBTQ community.
Wahl is expecting to see a sea of colour at kick-off in a match that also marks an opportunity to honour his late brother.
“I will be wearing a version of the rainbow soccer ball shirt that Grant was detained for in Qatar,” Wahl said.
“I think it’s going to be amazing. I just can’t wait to share that experience, and I can feel Grant smiling about it too.”
