What channel is the Buccaneers game on today? How to watch Bucs vs. Jaguars (August 17th)
By Josh Hill
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are back in action tonight, taking on the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 2 of the preseason.
Last week was good for both teams, as the Bucs went up to Cincinnati and came away with a last-minute touchdown to get a win. More than that, while we didn't see many starters play fans were treated to some great debuts by Tampa Bay's rookie class.
Bucky Irving and Graham Barton both turned in some great plays, while the Bucs' class of undrafted free agents started to step up and make the case that they deserve a roster spot. Running back Ramon Jefferson made a name for himself on the team's go-ahead touchdown drive that ended up being the game-winner, and he'll look to do the same on Saturday against the Jaguars.

This week's game is a little closer to home, as the Bucs will still be on the road but are back in Florida. Even better news is that the weather looks like it'll hold up, and we won't have to dance around any potential lightning delays, which seems to be an annual tradition at this time of year.
Unlike last week, Bucs fans can catch the game on WFLA rather than needing to search around for The CW. Here's everything you need to know to make sure you don't miss anything on Saturday night:
- Date: Saturday, August 17th
- Start Time: 7:30 pm ET
- Location: EverBank Stadium | Jacksonville, FL
- Local TV Channel: WFLA-TV
- Announcers: Chris Myers, Rondé Barber, Dan Lucas
- Radio: WXTB 97.9 FM
- Live Stream: NFL+ | Fubo
There's only one more game remaining on the preseason schedule for the Bucs, which will also be on WFLA next week. It's a Friday game, but it will be a home game against the Miami Dolphins.
It's expected that Baker Mayfield and some of the starters will get a tune-up drive to shake off any rust they have before starting the season two weeks later, which is all the more reason to either tune in or try to get out to Raymond James Stadium to see it in person.
