Seahawks-Cardinals Lands in Regional FOX Window for Week 2, With Commanders-Cowboys Taking National Spotlight

The Seattle Seahawks opened the 2026 NFL season in a national primetime slot, but their Week 2 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals will get a more limited regional distribution. The game is set for FOX’s late Sunday window at 1:25 pm PT, part of the network’s doubleheader coverage.

Per the coverage maps published by 506 Sports, the broadcast will reach all of Washington, Alaska, and Hawaii, along with most of Oregon, Idaho, Arizona, and Montana. The marquee game in that same window — Washington Commanders at Dallas Cowboys — will instead air to the majority of the country.

The distribution reflects the market realities of NFL broadcasting, a business central to Fox Corporation, whose portfolio spans news, sports, and entertainment across its Cable Network Programming and Television segments. Regional carve-ups are routine for the network’s Sunday afternoon slate, with coverage determined largely by the relative national draw of each matchup. Arizona’s upset win over the Los Angeles Chargers notwithstanding, the Cardinals remain a lower-priority national draw, leaving the Pacific Northwest and Mountain West markets with the Seahawks broadcast.

In the booth, Chris Myers and Mark Schlereth will handle the call. The pairing worked only one Seattle game last season — a 20-12 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Schlereth is a frequent guest on Seattle Sports 710, making him a familiar voice to local fans, while Myers was a regular presence on Seahawks broadcasts during the Legion of Boom era.

Fox Corporation shares closed at $64.45, down 0.82% from the prior close of $64.98, valuing the company at roughly $26.85 billion.
