Fox Sports Publishes NFL Preseason Week 1 Betting Lines from DraftKings
As of 13 August 2026, Fox Sports has released comprehensive betting spreads, moneylines, and totals for all 16 NFL preseason Week 1 fixtures, sourced directly from DraftKings Sportsbook.
Fox Sports has published the complete set of betting lines, spreads, and totals for the 16 NFL preseason Week 1 games, with data sourced from DraftKings Sportsbook as of 13 August 2026. The release covers matchups scheduled across Thursday 13 August through Saturday 15 August, providing a structured overview of market expectations for the opening exhibition window.
The data reveals significant variance in projected outcomes across the league. Notable spreads include the Detroit Lions being favoured by seven points over the Cincinnati Bengals, the Tennessee Titans by six points over the San Francisco 49ers, and the New York Jets by six points over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Other key fixtures feature the Green Bay Packers as slight favourites over the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Los Angeles Chargers edged against the Houston Texans.
Preseason wagering is inherently complicated by the fluid nature of team rosters during exhibition matches. The source material notes that accurate prediction is difficult because fans and analysts lack certainty regarding which players will actually take the field. This unpredictability means that the static odds provided as of 13 August 2026 are subject to fluctuation as closer to game time, with player availability remaining the primary variable influencing market movement.
The full schedule of odds spans three days of action. Thursday’s fixtures include the Indianapolis Colts favoured over the New England Patriots, while Friday sees the Miami Dolphins taking on the Washington Commanders and the Denver Broncos facing the Atlanta Falcons. Saturday’s slate concludes with high-profile matchups such as the Philadelphia Eagles visiting the Baltimore Ravens and the Dallas Cowboys travelling to face the Seattle Seahawks.
Fox Sports’ publication of these figures serves as a central reference point for the betting market, though the outlet discloses that it may be compensated through affiliate links with legal sports betting partners. The release underscores the commercial infrastructure supporting NFL preseason coverage, even as the sporting content itself remains an untested preview of the upcoming regular season.
